I’m in zone 10a, but since you haven’t got a reply, I’ll tell you my experience. I bought the bulbs at a county fair and put them in a good sized pot. They grew well, bloomed with lovely fragrance. I was amazed that they tolerated full sun In my zone. In a few years they outgrew the pot and I had lost interest in them, so I put them in the ground where they continue to grow and bloom in random places in the rose garden. Oddly, one is blooming right now. They die back for the winter and resprout in the spring. They develop bulblets (or whatever they are called.)

Thank you for sharing and I am excited to hear the story :) hoping I will be able to grow them successfully, planted them in a pot and we currently have rains, hope they will be ok

I hope they work for you too. It's so much fun to try something new.
