Perfect for patio containers or a mixed flower border, these compact plants have truly remarkable flowers with seemingly hundreds of salmon coloured petals surrounding a pale green centre. They only grow to 35cm (14") tall, and they make great cut flowers to bring indoors. Grow in full sun to partial shade, but be sure to lift the rhizomes in the fall to store over winter in a frost-free spot.
Five rhizomes per package.
Bulbs are easy to plant and easy to grow. Flower Bulbs are broken down into two very general groups – Fall planting bulbs benefit from sitting in cold soil. Spring planting bulbs do not require cold soil to trigger flowering. Fall planting bulbs can be planted any time between late September and January, but most gardeners plant fall bulbs in October and November, about the same time you would plant garlic. Fall planting bulbs will bloom the following spring and early summer. Spring planting bulbs should be sunk into the ground in March and April. They tend to bloom later in the spring, into mid-summer.
