An exceptionally early flowering variety, that will produce its elegant, bicoloured blooms as early as January. The flowers are very pretty, each with a large soft lemon cup, which is surrounded by a creamy-white perianth (collar). These top stout and short(ish) stems, so they will take poor weather in their stride, and are ideal for pots and windowboxes. 'Spring Dawn' is brilliant for extending the season and providing a much-needed splash of colour in the late winter garden.
Wearing gloves plant bulbs 10-15cm (4-6in) deep and 10cm (4in) apart in autumn. After flowering feed with a balanced fertiliser, deadhead the flowers, but do not be tempted to cut back or tidy the foliage after flowering as this will interfere with the bulbs’ ability to store energy for the following year's flowers.
