One of our oldest heirloom bulbs, Checkered Lily It must be planted in the fall right away as the bulb is somewhat small like a crocus but is a bit more fragile. But the good news is once it’s planted, it’s hardy and wonderful! If planted later towards winter you will get leaves but perhaps not flowers until the second year so do get them planted right away.
