Widely grown both as a garden bedding plant and as a florist's cut flower, it flowers profusely in spring and, in mild climates, again in autumn, then dies back to its tuber to rest through the hottest or coldest months. It is easy to grow from soaked tubers but does carry mild toxicity, so it is best kept away from pets and curious children.
