Fertile, humus-rich, leafy, moist but well-drained neutral soil is preferred; although best in part-shade, if the soil is moist will do well in more open sites. Young growth is late, often not appearing until later in spring. Plant tubers 15cm deep in winter or early spring. Apply a deep winter mulch in colder areas, and take pots under cover

Watering: Even soft damp soil, cut watering after above-ground foliage dies backSunlight: Partial shadeInformation to be completed
