You feel they are better off in the garden.
What do you especially to cultivate the garden? What are the important points to be observed?
They do well in the garden, no special treatment. I planted the bulbs around ten years ago and they come up every year.

I planted some bulbs this year in the new bed of lava stone. I hope they go as well as you.

Ian has planted some to grow  "free" in the sand beds in the glass house - they are flowering there for the second year in a row -  to our delight.

Yes Maggi,

I read in the bulb log diary. For a long time he wanted out of the pots.

Sternbergia greuteriana - small and dainty but very welcome at this time of year.
