Place the bulb with the pointed end facing upwards.
Gently cover the bulb and lightly compress the soil.

Plant Spacing: 5cm
Light: Full sun or partial shade

Plant in well-drained soil.
The bulbs are known to be quite fragile, so plant carefully on their side to avoid moisture build up and prevent rotting.
Deadhead regularly to encourage new growth.
Leave the foliage to naturally die back to allow the bulb to restore its energy for next year’s blooms.
