Planting and Growing Information
Plant 'Ruby Giant' corms in fall, ideally from late September through mid-November, allowing them to establish before winter. Position bulbs approximately 2 inches deep in well-drained soil, spacing them to achieve about 15 bulbs per square foot for optimal visual impact. They thrive in full sun to partial shade locations and perform beautifully under deciduous trees, in rock gardens, along walkways, or naturalized in lawns. After flowering, allow foliage to die back naturally to ensure strong returns in subsequent years.
