Planting and Growing Information
Plant 'Carlton' bulbs in fall, ideally October to November, before ground freeze. Position in full sun to partial shade in well-drained soil at 6 inches depth, spacing bulbs 4-6 inches apart. This adaptable performer thrives in USDA zones 3-8, making it suitable for projects across most of the United States. Expect glorious blooms in mid-spring, with minimal maintenance required. After flowering, allow foliage to die back naturally to ensure strong returns in subsequent years.
