Answers:
as far as digging them up, only if you are north of the mason dixon line. Down in GA we only cut them back and cover with mulch. for # of flowers, spacing etc, they should have instructions on the packaging. Most of them have multiple flowers per stalk. They seem to bloom better a few years after the initial planting. Good luck. They do attract pincher bugs. be careful to shake them out before bringing indoors to enjoy. Happy gardening!
the mail order will only send plants the correct time in which they are to be planted. so if u had order 10 different plants, all ten would not be coming the same time..
The size of the flower is usually dependent upon the size of the bulb, but bear in mind, that u do have to take them out of the soil in the fall and airdry them.
u should allow about 6 inches between plants. Yes, they are geourgeous flowers and I too like them.
