What have you been feeding it on? With bulbs you normally wait until they have flowered and then feed with half strength liquid tomato feed until the foliage dies down. Also if has been in same pot since you bought and you have not been refreshing the compost then that might be the problem too.

yes, think that you should repot into a larger one, fresh soil, compost etc. ours are usually good, but I never feed them with anything. In their native country they grow wild, so maybe they can deal with poor soil/not feeding.You may just have been feeding the foliage.

Moving to a bigger pot might be a good time to thin out the bulbs a little too, as they do get very crowded over time. They make a series of bulbs one on top of another and you can discard some of the older ones at the end of the chain.

Amazing how some bulbs do that isn't it Stera... we were unpotting a repotting bulbs today and some of them had done this - senior moment can't remember which one!

Sure is. But the whole plant thing is amazing when you stop to think about it.

I so agree... Frit's not only producing seed but 'rice' babies!

Lovely!

Thank you, everyone. I guess the pot is a bit tiny now, and I think I probably was just feeding the leaves, and the compost in the pot hasn't been refreshed for some years... It is a miracle that it flowered at all! I shall take your advice and hope for great things next year.
