Having grown them in the past and again last season, the cormules of G dalenii seem to stay the same size the first year after being planted out. Dug in the fall, the yearlings produced more, even smaller, cormules rather than grow larger. Is this the case in most species? The other consideration is soil fertility. The location is a heavily amended vegetable garden. Is a leaner soil better in this circumstance? The mature corms produced 3-4 large blooming size offsets along with hundred of cormules. They are lifted each year. Another grower in the area said hers in the ground, not lifted, bloom poorly after a few years of being overcrowded. Is there another method for cormule cultivation better suited to increase size?
