Its ok Barb, for the most part you tamed me :twisted:

Put them in soil, but do not completely bury them. Leave the top of the corm above the soil. IF its small, around the sie of an egg, leave the top part just above soil. IF they are bigger, leave then jsut around 1/8 inch above. Keep the soil barely moist untill it starts to grow.
