Then I just forget about them until I start to see signs of shoots, when I bring them into a warm room and let them get on with it. I think that you are not supposed to feed them when the flower spike is developing because that will encourage them to grow leaves. I have lost a couple in cold weather - I fund the multi-headed more delicately flowered ones seem to be fussier. I should think planting them outdoors would work pretty well (it's not really warm enough here), but the bulb needs to go back into a small-ish pot when you repot it, they like to be cramped.Jodie Robsonhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/02442935205880334932noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-3721699631305175272.post-46152208325940722522009-02-13T15:53:00.000+00:002009-02-13T15:53:00.000+00:00Could you tell me more about care during the 'off ...Could you tell me more about care during the 'off season?' Do you plant the bulbs outdoors for the summer? My motherinlaw often gives us one for Christmas but I've never tried saving it to bloom again.Nanhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/15547916206007733970noreply@blogger.com
