Growing instructions:
Making the compost - place the peat-free compost pellets in a suitable mixing container and add 350ml of lukewarm water. Allow to stand and expand for 30-60 minutes, drain off any excess water and mix compost well. You may have more compost than you require and more water could be required if the compost mix is looking dry.
How to plant (from August onwards): Half fill the planter with the compost. Place the bulbs with the nose upright and cover with more compost. Water sparingly so the compost is moist. Be careful not to overwater. Place the planter in a cool dark position (7-9ºC). When the shoots are 5-10cm tall place in a light, warm position (18-20ºC). Once in flower move to a cool, bright position to prolong life. Turn occasionally as the flowers will grow towards the light. Keep compost moist at all times. When the flowers have finished blooming, the bulbs can be planted outside in the garden.
