Ixia - need info on how to grow

Temecula
20 years ago

I have some ixia bulbs arriving in March and I need a planting plan. I've heard that they want no dry season watering, so how do you incorporate these into your garden beds? My garden normally receives water once a week, then it increases to twice a week, maybe three times during the hottest part of summer. Will the ixia rot under these conditions? Should I grow them in pots and forget about the garden beds? I have tons of babiana, watsonia, crocosmia, ranunculas and glads that don't mind my watering habits. Are the ixia really that particular? Thanks!
