Planting and Growing Information

Plant Salome bulbs in fall, approximately 6 inches deep and 4-6 inches apart in well-drained soil. This adaptable variety thrives in full sun to partial shade across USDA hardiness zones 3-9. Expect magnificent blooms in early to mid-spring, reaching heights of 16 inches. After flowering, allow foliage to die back naturally to nourish bulbs for future seasons. Apply fertilizer once yearly and consider a protective mulch layer in colder regions for optimal performance.
