They need to be in a well drained area, in sun or partial shade, and the bulb can adapt to most soils. Once the temperature is right, the bulb will send up its one cotyledon and from that leaves will make their way up and out to the light to soak up energy and make food for the bulb and expectant flowers. They last a full month or so, depending on the variety. When the flowers are finished, you leave the leaves in place for about a month. After they have started turning yellow, all of the food that they can make has been sent to the bulb. They they disappear until the next spring. Each year the bulb will multipy to produce new plants. They are very simple plants to have and they need very little tending.
