If they're sprouting they should bloom this season . The question in the Caribbean is would you be able to provide a suitable cool dry dormancy so they come back next year?

That is what I did with my bulbs last year. They survived the "winter chill" in my cheese drawer, and I planted nine tiny bulbs, up from the original four that I bought in early 2016. They are just starting to sprout, and so far I have 6 or 7 green tips showing. I'm thrilled!!!

I just got mine and potted them up. I thought I let them get too dry so I gently pushed back the pumice and saw a new sprout just forming. I plan on using the wintering-in-the-refrigerator method.
