Growing Instructions:
Select a pot that is approximately ½” in diameter larger than the bulb. Fill the pot approximately half full with a good quality, sterilized potting soil that drains well. Place the bulb into the pot and continue adding soil, leaving the top 1/3 of the bulb exposed. Be sure there is at least ½” of space between the soil and the top rim of the pot for watering. Water thoroughly with lukewarm water immediately after potting. Keep the soil moist but not wet, and avoid getting water directly onto the bulb stem. Place the pot in a warm room that is well-lit; a south-facing window is best. Do not overwater once the shoots begin to appear. When flowers begin to bloom, move the pot to a slightly cooler spot where it receives indirect lighting. After the flowers fade, cut the stem off leaving approximately 3″ above the top of the bulb. Do not remove or cut off the leaves. Treat the plant as you would any indoor plant, watering it lightly and regularly to keep the soil moist.
