I have no trouble with growing Brodiaes in the UK climate. (Derbyshire) Out of doors it will need a very well drained position, but Summer rain is not a problem. Undercover they are happy to be very dry from June to November inclusive. The off setts require some feeding, if in pots, to grow them to flowering size. I find that, in general, Californian bulbs seem to grow in the second half of Winter. Eurasian Winter growers generally start rooting in Autumn.
