Sternbergia and Zephyranthes

My Sternbergia are planted in a raised edging. So they are well
drained, a vital fact to Sternbergias. It is mild here, equivalent to
Zone 10a, and they flower their little hearts out every autumn. Such a
cheery sight on a dull, dark day. They get quite a bit of sun, but
certainly not all day.
Incidentally, it was an accidental planting, I knew nothing about these
bulbs.
