Hi,

I bought allium globemaster bulbs from Netherlands a couple of months ago and brought them to Pakistan.The bulbs were not chilled or forced by the grower in Netherlands.I placed them wrapped in newspaper in the refridgerator and kept for 45 days.Then I transferred them in moist coco peat and placed in the refridgerator again.After 5-6 days allium started making huge mass of roots.What do I do now ?

The bulbs have been chilled for 50 days.This is about time we plant amaryllis and it'd flower in April.November and December would see minimum temperature of 0C and would provide another 400 chill hours.February and March are spring months here.

Can I hope to see alliums bloom ? Should I pot them or keep refridgerated ? The temp currently outside is 28C max and 18C min.It'll keep dipping down untill 15 of January.

Regards,

Adnan.
