Rich, well-drained sandy loam or potting mix with perlite. Avoid heavy clay.
Water regularly during active growth. Allow soil to dry slightly between waterings to prevent corm rot. Reduce after flowering.
Full sun required for best blooms (6+ hours). Indoor plants need bright direct light.
Apply balanced fertilizer at planting; switch to high phosphorus when buds form for stronger blooms.
Cut flower spikes at base for cut flowers. Remove spent blooms to encourage further flowering, leave foliage until yellowed.
