Help! Does anyone grow these? I bought about 3 bulbs of this plant during the summer and planted them in a pot. They grew leaves, but I didn't expect them to flower as the bulbs were quite small. My intent was to plant them in the ground, but I never got around to it. We were going to have frost/freeze, so I put the pot in my unheated garage with the intent to let it go dormant for the winter. But to my surprise, a few days later I noticed that one of the bulbs has a flower bud. Blinking Do they normally flower this late in the season? I'm in zone 8a and we get frequent frosts. We've had our killing frost already. Should I allow the bulbs to go dormant? Confused
