About Winter aconite
A knobbly little tuber that flowers in late winter. Dry tubers are poor at establishing, so soaking overnight before planting helps.
Depth and spacing
Typical range: 5 cm deep and 5-8 cm apart. A general rule is to plant at two to three times the height of the tuber; check the label for your variety. The drawing is to scale for 5 cm deep and 6.5 cm apart (the size of the organ is illustrative); try your own measurements.
When to plant
Plant in autumn. Plant: from your first autumn frost to 6 weeks after. These are rules of thumb for the northern hemisphere. Enter your frost dates for real dates.
Dividing and propagating
Move clumps in the green straight after flowering, or let it self-seed.
Lifting and storing
Do not let tubers dry. Plant as soon as you can.
