Mark As a general rule I try to keep any first year seedlings growing as long as possible. Keeping them cool has always seemed to be a requirement. I store all of my SA bulbs in a cool basement for the summer months. I find that Moraea are pretty tolerable bulbs.

Hello all, I was looking back at some posts here about growing Moraea from seed and ran across some comments about the dangers of starting Moraea in late winter as the bulbs will not get big enough to survive the dry summer period. I have a number of pots germinating now and was wondering about the possibility of keeping them growing as long as possible before putting them into dormancy? Or alternatively just trying to store them over summer in as cool a location as possible? Any tips for getting late germinating seed pots of Moraea through the summer would be appreciated!
