Water consistently during the growing season, allowing the soil to dry slightly between waterings. Reduce watering significantly during dormancy in late summer and fall.

Avoid waterlogged conditions, which can lead to bulb rot. Ensure good drainage to prevent issues.

Remove spent flower stalks after blooming to prevent seed production and direct energy back to the bulb. Trim any yellowed or dead foliage in late fall or early winter before the plant enters dormancy.

This also helps maintain a tidy appearance.

Propagate primarily through division of bulbs during dormancy in late summer or early fall. Gently separate offsets and replant them immediately in well-draining soil.

Seeds can be sown fresh in fall, but germination can be erratic and slow.

Repot only when the bulbs become crowded, typically every 2-3 years. The best time to repot is during the plant's dormant period in late summer or early fall.

Use a well-draining potting mix and a pot that allows for some root expansion.
