Soil: garlic flower has very low requirements for soil, even if it is planted in the garden in Beijing, it can grow well, but it is after all a southern flower, so the soil should be acidic soil, a little sandy, breathable and permeable.

Watering: keep the soil moist, but do not accumulate water, watering should not be too much, otherwise it will make its rhizome rot.

Post-anthesis treatment: Lycoris should cut off the scape after flowering to reduce the loss of nutrients.

Depth: the planting depth should not be too deep, and the top of the bulb should be just buried in the soil.
