Morning all,

Just been given Montbretia by a neighbour, thinning her patch.Â* I have
the corms, complete with greenery and even a few orange flowers.Â* No
earth on the corms.

When should I plant them?Â* Now, or spring?Â* Should I cut off the growth,
or just leave it to wither and die?


Put them in the ground and leave the foliage to die away naturally. I
doubt there is much that you can do to them that will stop them growing.
They are almost indestructible.
