When is the best time to plant Nerine bowdenii? and what sort of conditions do they like?

Nerine bowdenii like a warm, sunny position and they will do well planted at the foot of a south-facing wall.

Well-drained soil is essential.

Plant the bulbs in ether April or August with their tips just below soil level, and in a position where they can be left undisturbed for many years,

If flowering becomes somewhat less, then lift the bulbs, split, and replant
