🌿 Subtropical Growing Tips:
• Pre-Chill Method: To simulate natural dormancy, place corms in the fridge (not freezer) for 4–6 weeks before planting.
• Best Planting Time: In warmer zones, plant corms in late autumn for flowers in late winter or early spring.
• Season Protection: Use unheated cloches, tunnels, or row covers to buffer against heatwaves or chilly nights.
• Soil Preparation: Choose loose, fertile, and well-draining soil enriched with compost or organic matter.
• Watering Routine: Maintain steady moisture levels—moist, not soggy. Reduce overhead watering to avoid fungal issues.
• Light Needs: Prefers full sun, but can benefit from partial shade during peak heat hours.
• Feeding Schedule: Apply a balanced, all-purpose fertilizer during the active growing phase for strong stems and blooms.
