CULTURE 
Achimenes bulbs are very tiny, but don’t let this fool you. 
When they start to grow, they grow to beat the band. Do not 
underpot them. A single bulb will fill a 4’’ pot in a season, 3 
bulbs to a 5’’ pot will make a lovely potful. Plant them in very 
fibrous leafmold and peat with some sand added and make sure 
drainage is good. They want good moisture when growing but 
cannot stand wet feet. Give them lots of bright light and fer- 
tilize often.
