This is a wonderful, showy, dramatic flower. It is wonderfully scented and is a full 5-6 inches in size. It needs to be spaced about 9-12 inches apart about 5-6 inches deep in the ground. I like them planted in a mass, so this 5 bulb grouping is perfect for that. One year on our nursery, we have several acres planted with this bulb, and you could smell the wonderful scent about a mile away, we had people stopping constantly to take photos in our beautiful flowers! Zone 3-9, need to be mulched in Zone 3-4.
