Bouquets made from its hollow but fairly sturdy stems also look original. The plant is unpretentious and it is possible to achieve its second flowering in summer in the open air.

Flowering period: January to February
Colour of flowers: red
The large Red Tiger bulb will be potted immediately after purchase by burying it 1/3rd of the way down. Choose a pot with a small diameter for planting. Keep the soil lightly moistened throughout the post-planting period by drying out the clump of soil. When the flower stalks are extended and a strong rosette of leaves is formed, fertilization with a universal fertilizer is added to the care. In summer, the bulbs are planted in the open ground. Often they will bloom again. In autumn, they are dug up and left to dry out for two months.

Place the pot in a warm, bright location with indirect sunlight.

Water the plant only when the top inch of soil is dry to the touch.
