I plant some every year. I can't boast great results because I plant them in big pots with other bulbs and pansies.

They like it cool (tricky here in TX this spring) but don't want to freeze. I've read they are happiest between the 50s and 80. I have several blooming now and it's gotten to a 100. They hated that.

Typically, I plant around Christmas and they bloom in mid April. Hope that helps.
