Intermediate-day
varieties require 12-14 hours of sunlight before beginning the bulbing process.
Unless you live in far south Florida or south Texas you should have enough
daytime hours to make good sized bulbs. When planted at the proper time, all
varieties mature in approximately 110 days. The recommended planting time is 4-6 weeks before your last average frost date.
