Replanting Scadoxus Multiflorus

This question was asked by

I bought bulbs from you this year and they have been beautiful. I would now like to group them and wondered when I could lift and replant them.

After your Scadoxus Multiflorus has finished flowering, cut the flower head off and allow the stem and foliage to die back naturally. Once your Scadoxus Multiflorus has died back completely, you can lift them. Scadoxus Multiflorus need protection over the Winter months, so I would suggest storing your bulbs somewhere dry like a shed or an alternative frost-free area. If you are replanting them in pots, just bring the pot into shelter until the risk of frost has passed.
