Plant in a pot just slightly wider than the bulb, in well-drained potting mix, with the top third of the bulb above the soil.
Keep it warm while it roots, about 70 to 77°F, then give it bright, indirect light.
Water lightly at first, then keep the soil moist but never soggy, since overwatering rots the bulb.
