Growing

May be started from seed to flower in its second year, or from clusters of claw-like tubers planted in autumn or spring. Requires a dry, dormant period in summer. Grows best under unheated glass with good light and ventilation, using a fertile, humus-rich, free-draining compost such as a mix of equal parts loam, leaf mould and grit. Can also be used as a short-term bedding plant on well-drained soils
