Generally speaking, Lycoris do not like to be disturbed although some may bloom the same year they are transplanted. They may need to be divided every few years to prevent over-crowding. Divide clumps during dormancy. When you divide old plantings (lycoris normally increases by offsets), keep the roots intact and moist. After planting, most new bulbs may go unnoticed for a season or two or just send up leaves. You may not see any foliage or flowers the following season, but they should eventually send up foliage and thereafter bloom in season.
