Giant White Squill

Hello Jim,

I have one in SoCal that I’ve had for about 6 years. It’s planted in
fairly loose fast draining soil. Dressed with pumice/ clay pot. I have the
bulb 1/2 of the way above ground. It has increased in size snd blooms each
late summer. After which the leaves erupt and stay green until the late
winter. It’s in full sun and I never water it until I see some growth in
late summer telling me the bloom spike is about to emerge. I do give it
some light fertilizer upon watering at first. Mostly I leave it alone.
Removing the bloom spike and leaves after they have dried. Hope this helps.
Mike
