Water generously during the growing season, allowing the soil to dry slightly between waterings.

Reduce watering significantly when the plant goes dormant in the fall and winter, keeping the soil barely moist to prevent root rot. Ensure good drainage to avoid waterlogged conditions.

Prune back spent flower stems to encourage more blooms. After flowering, allow the foliage to die back naturally before cutting it down in autumn as the plant enters dormancy.

Remove any dead or diseased foliage promptly throughout the year.

Propagate primarily by division of tubers in early spring before new growth begins. Seed propagation is also possible but can be slow and less reliable.

Ensure new divisions have at least one viable bud for successful establishment.

Repot every 2-3 years in spring, just as new growth emerges. Use a well-draining potting mix, such as a cactus or orchid mix, with added compost.

Choose a pot that allows ample room for tuber growth, ensuring not to plant tubers too deeply.
