South-African bulbs - Not all grow in standard potting soil

Except for Watsonia, Homeria, Moraea and some robust related species, other species have not survived standard potting soil (peat-based). I had better success with sand, but situation needs improvement.

What potting mix is best suited for them? I've purchased the book "Cape bulbs" and have found a wealth of information about these bulbs, with details going down to soil composition, but I have found no information about potting mix.
