Planting and Growing Information
Plant 'Peter Pears' corms in spring after the threat of frost has passed, placing them 4-6 inches deep and 4-6 inches apart in well-drained, fertile soil. These sun-lovers require 6-8 hours of direct sunlight daily for optimal flowering. In zones 8-11, corms can remain in the ground year-round, while in zones 3-7, they should be lifted in fall after foliage dies back and stored in a cool, dry place until spring replanting. Expect magnificent blooms from early to late summer.
