Ixiolirion tataricum - how hardy and long-lived is it?

Jane,
Here as the same. Tried it seveal years and consistently disappeared. I
decided that it is not adapted to the mediterranean climate and was removed
from our catalogue.
Greetings Lauw

I've bought bulbs of Ixiolirion tataricum several times; they're readily
available from commercial Dutch sources. However, I've never managed to
establish them in the garden. I don't know whether the bulbs are badly
affected by storage and shipping, or whether they simply don't tolerate
mild, wet winter conditions (as might be true of a steppe plant).
