@crawgarden Can I ask what kind of trouble that you have with them? Do you have a problem with them not returning or blooming?? Basically, the best time to plant them is when they go dormant (July-August). Plant them so that they are about 2-3" deep. Sit back and wait for them to bloom in Sept-Oct. You will see the greenish cream flower stems pop out of the ground when they are ready to bloom. Best place to plant them is in full sun or partial shade in good well drain soil. Make sure you mulch them in the summer while they are dormant because they like it cool. In the spring when you see them growing green foliage, give them some fertilizer but it is optional. I have not fertilized mine and they are still blooming and going strong.
