How to store them in summer?

[JPB]

I have young (0.5 year old) bulbs of Gladiolus illyricus, Pancratium maritimum, P. canariensis, Narcissus serotinus, N. cantabricus and Urginea maritimum. They are all dormant now. What is the best way to treat them in summer? Completely dry of incidental water gifts? Leaving them in their pots of harvest the bulbs? In a sunexposed greenhouse (up to 35C) or at home at lower temperatures (mostly around 20C)?

Thanks, Hans

I've got plenty of room for those as well , best kept cooler I think, It is too easy to dessicate small bulbs, Gladiolus usually survive if they have grown well but the corms are very tiny so best potted on when in leaf next season, my only experiance of ungernia was Halda seed which never germinated , I damp down most of my bulbs under cover once or twice a month while dormant and I keep them in their pots untill repotting.
Best of luck

I store my dormant Cyclamen, Narcissus and SA bulbs in a cool basement.  Temps are constant at 65 F.  Don't give any water.

I always keep my young bulbs 2 or 3 years in the same pot
they dry out to easy and die most of the time
just the real weeds and desert plants survive
and like Peter I don't let the soil get bone dry
maybe you want to swap a few P. canariensis
I have for the first time Pancratium illyricum RGB Corse seeds
They are not ripe yet but the seed pots look healthy

Thanks. I'll keep them not too hot. Occasional misting.

Roland, I have a few 1-2 year old bulbs of P. canariensis for exchange. Please send me a PM
