Blooming Size Bulbs.
This is full blooming size. Bulbs larger than this have usually already bloomed and will not bloom again until their offsets reach full size, which takes about 2 years. Proper size selection is the secret to getting Tuberose's to bloom the first year after planting.
Basic planting:
1.) Find well drained soil. (You don't want water to puddle.)
2.) Full to Part sun in a warm location. ( they like temps of 90-95 Plus degrees).
3.) They have a shallow root system so plant them just under the soil and water heavily. Then water well at least once a week.
