Germination

Sow indoors at any time. Sow 5mm deep into moist well-drained seed compost. Ideal temp. 18-22°C for 2-4 weeks. Then cold stratify. Move to -4°C-+4°C for 4-6 weeks then move to 12°C for germination. Germination can be erratic. Transplant seedlings once germinated into 8cm pots and grow on for the first year, allowing the bulb to form. Plant out in the second spring after danger of frost has passed.

Growing

Prefers fertile, humus-rich, well-drained acidic soil in partial shade that does not dry out.

Cultivation

No pruning required. Prefers not to be disturbed. Will form clumps as the bulbs divide.
