since green biscuit noh deh pon de job, [img]/forums/images/%%GRAEMLIN_URL%%/sick.gif[/img] me had to google the information myself.. [img]/forums/images/%%GRAEMLIN_URL%%/70388-shameonyou.gif[/img]
fe all of those gardeners or wanna be gardeners, the first thing fe do is fe plant the bulbs face up and bout 6 inches apart.
also me find out that the bulbs, because most of dem a hybrids, wont lass pass two or even three seasons, so u do haffe replant.
also the bulbs that have divided themsleves, me a go plant dem inna one patch a land pon de side of the house, and hopefully inna two more years dem will get big enuff fe produce flowers..
