Plant care:
It requires exposure to full sun or even partial shade, as long as it still receives a lot of light during all seasons.
It is preferable to keep it at mild temperatures and above all never below 5 ° C, for this reason it is recommended to place it in sheltered places during the winter.
It is advisable to always keep the soil moist enough, never dry, to prevent the bulb from drying out. Pay attention to stagnant water that could cause rot.
A strongly draining soil is optimal, for example formed by a mixture of peat and pumice so that the water does not stagnate.
They do not need frequent fertilizations, it will be sufficient to dilute fertilizer with watering once a year.
