What to Know
- Plant in well-draining soil that's enriched with organic matter.
- 'King Alfred' prefers full sun, but it can tolerate partial shade.
- Ensure consistent moisture during its active growing phase, but avoid waterlogged soil.
- Once the blooms have faded, let the green foliage die back naturally, as this process nourishes the bulb for the following year.
- While it's generally resistant to pests, monitoring for slugs and bulb flies can be beneficial.
