Planting and Growing Information

Plant these premium size 8/9 corms in fall, approximately 3 inches deep and with 15 bulbs per square foot for optimal display. They thrive in well-drained, gritty soil across USDA hardiness zones 3-8, making them suitable for diverse climate conditions throughout the United States.
