Water thoroughly when the top 2-3 cm of soil is dry. Reduce watering significantly during the dormant period in winter, allowing the soil to dry out more between waterings.

Avoid waterlogging, as this can lead to bulb rot.

Remove spent flower stalks and any yellowing or dead leaves to maintain a tidy appearance and prevent disease. Pruning is generally minimal, focusing on aesthetic maintenance. Avoid cutting healthy green foliage.

Propagation is primarily achieved through offsets (bulblets) that form around the parent bulb. Carefully separate these offsets during repotting and plant them in their own pots.

They may take a few years to reach flowering size.

Repot every 2-3 years, or when the bulb becomes crowded, preferably in spring before new growth begins. Use a well-draining potting mix.

Choose a pot that is only slightly larger than the current root ball to avoid excess moisture retention.
