Prepare weed-free soil and incorporate well-rotted compost if necessary.
Plant each set pointed end upward, just below the surface, leaving the tip visible.
Firm the soil gently and water during prolonged dry spells.
Protect newly planted sets from birds with netting or fleece.
Harvest when the foliage yellows and falls over, then dry the bulbs thoroughly before storing.
