Easy to Grow Bulbs Lycoris Sprengeri

These bulbs should be planted in the fall. This timing allows them to establish their root systems before the dormant period, ensuring they are ready to bloom from late summer into autumn.

Plant the bulbs with the top 1/4 inch exposed above the soil surface. Unlike many other bulbs that require deep burial, Lycoris Sprengeri prefers to have its neck near the surface.

These bulbs are cold-hardy in USDA zones 6 through 9. If you live in a region colder than zone 6, they may not survive the winter outdoors without significant protection.

No, Lycoris Sprengeri is deer resistant. This makes them a great choice for garden areas that are prone to wildlife browsing.

After the late-summer blooms finish, the plant will produce slim, lush foliage that persists throughout the winter. This provides attractive greenery in your garden long after other perennials have gone dormant.

For the best visual impact and healthy growth, space your bulbs 6 to 9 inches apart. This allows enough room for the plants to mature to their full spread of 1 to 2 feet.
