Bloomeria , a sun-loving genus, flourishes in the wild landscapes of California. To replicate its natural habitat, it requires a warm climate, well-drained soil, and abundant sunlight. Watering should be moderate and infrequent, making it a suitable candidate for xeriscape gardens. Some common challenges include root rot in poorly drained soils, infestations by common pests such as aphids or bulb mites, and vulnerability to frost. Seasonally, bloomeria lies dormant in the summer and has to be watered less. Make sure to protect bulbs from freezing in winter.
