Green Thumb Guide

Plant bulbs in a sunny spot with enriched, well draining, slightly acidic soil. Apply mulch around base to conserve moisture and protect from hot winds. Use a bulb fertilizer in the planting hole before adding the bulb and burying. Feed again late winter before new growth. Clear away old, dead foliage in winter for a tidy appearance. Divide bulb clusters every 5-8 years. Following mild winters, bulbs may not bloom well. Dig up and refrigerate for about 6 weeks before planting to induce flowering.
