Reproduced most commonly effected by offshoots from corms, though seeds may be
produced and used.

Soil> equal parts sand, garden soil and rotted manure.
To get the best results beds should be dug up at least once every 3 yrs. and
corms seperated and replanted. Plants do best if there is an abundance of
moistureat the time of flowering.

Corms set out in late fall should bloom the following year. Can be planted in
a variety of locations: e.g. along a path, on a bank, in front of shrub
plantings,, almost anyplace they can be left undisturbed after flowering.

NOTE: Seeds produced at ground surface easily overlooked.
