These are some of the most attractive bulbs for the late spring garden, but are not often available from bulb supply companies.

Cultivation:
Sow seed in a cool greenhouse or coldframe in spring. Grow on in any good garden soil with good drainage. Bulbs will attain flowering size in 2-3 years. For maximum freshness, please keep seed refrigerated in its original packaging until it is time to plant.
