• Soil Preparation: Enrich with compost or organic matter for better drainage and nutrients.

• Depth & Spacing: Plant bulbs (technically rhizomes) 3–4 inches deep and space 12 inches apart.

• Watering: Water well after planting. Keep soil evenly moist during the growing season, especially during dry periods.

• Mulching: Apply a layer of mulch to help retain moisture and regulate soil temperature.

• Fertilizing: Feed with a balanced, water-soluble fertilizer every 4–6 weeks during active growth.

• Overwintering (for zones colder than 8): Dig up bulbs before the first frost, allow them to dry, and store in a cool, dry place over winter.
