As a general rule, you can expect to see blooms approximately 70 to 100 days after planting. Where to Plant: Location & Soil Sunlight: Bulb love the sun. Choose a spot that gets at least six to eight hours of direct sunlight daily. Soil: They need well-draining soil. If you have heavy clay soil, consider planting them in raised beds or containers to prevent the corms from rotting. For best results, you can enrich the planting site by mixing in a couple of inches of compost. How to Plant: A Step-by-Step Guide Follow these simple steps to plant your Bulb corms directly in the ground or a garden bed. Prepare the hole: Dig a hole or a trench that is about 4 to 6 inches (10-15 cm) deep. The general guideline is to plant the corm at a depth about three times its own height. Orient the corm: Place the corm in the hole with the pointed side facing up. This is where the sprout will emerge. Space them out: Space the corms about 4 to 6 inches (10-15 cm) apart. This gives them enough room to grow without competing for resources. Backfill and water: Cover the corms with soil, gently pat it down to remove air pockets, and then water them in well.
