Your best plan is to keep them alive in the pots by watering them, and planting them out in the open ground in the spring. Franz |

writes we were given a bowl of them at christmas and v much enjoyed the colour and scent,now they are in decline and we are loath to just throw them away,how do we store them andget them started again for next year,many thanks Not worth storing them. But you can plant the permanently outdoors once the weather warms up a bit and they will probably give you some flowers in the garden next year. That is what I do with mine. Some prepared bulbs will take more than one year to get the bulb back into flowering condition. It isn't worth bring them in as house plants two years running. It takes far too much out of the bulb and they need a sheltered sunny spot outside. Regards, -- Martin Brown |
