CULTIVATION: Plant 6 inches deep and 4-5 inches apart. If perennial flowering is desired, apply a balanced fertilizer after planting. Deadhead after flowering. Allow the foliage to yellow for about 6 weeks after flowering before removing it. When growing water moderately, apply a balanced liquid fertilizer weekly for 3 or 4 weeks after flowering, keep dry in summer.
PROPAGATION: Separate offsets after lifting -- 6+ weeks after bloom, replant.
PESTS AND DISEASES: Root and bulb rots are common in wet or poorly drained soil. Gray mold, slugs, snails, aphids, and nematodes are problems.
