Description:
Stunning flowers AND foliage! Oratorio boasts coral-red flowers atop burgundy-striped, dark-green foliage.
If you want to grow this little beauty in pots, chill potted bulbs at approximately 4 C for 13 - 15 weeks (the fridge is the easiest place to do this for most home gardeners). Remove, and place in a bright location to initiate growth and flowers.
Plant the bulbs in early to mid-October for gorgeous spring blooms. Add bonemeal at the time of planting to encourage strong root development.
