Sowing
Sow once the soil is warmer than 10 °C, in a sunny spot sheltered from the wind. Sow about three times as deep as the seed is thick, into finely raked soil with no clods on top. Spacing is as printed on the packet — thin the seedlings out after they come up. Water with a fine spray so the seed is not washed away, and keep only the strongest plants.
Description
A delicate early-flowering bulbous plant that creates a beautiful carpet of flowers right at the start of spring.
The star-shaped flowers are in violet-lilac shades with a light, almost white centre.
Suitable for planting in flower beds, rock gardens, lawns, under broadleaf trees and in pots.
How to grow
Planting time: Plant the bulbs in autumn – from September to November, before the soil freezes.
Position: Choose a sunny or partially shaded position with well-drained soil.
Depth: Place the bulbs at a depth of about 5–8 cm, with the pointed end up.
Spacing: Leave approximately 5–8 cm between individual bulbs. For a more impressive effect, plant them in groups.
Care: Water after planting. After flowering, let the leaves turn yellow and die back naturally to nourish the bulbs for the next season.
