A small note to help you get good results from your Tacca bulbs
Rehydrate a Dried Flower Bulb
If the bulbs feel a bit dry on arrival, fill a container with tepid water and remove any loose husks or dirt from the bulbs. If the bulbs have reproduced, gently pull the small bulbs away from the parent. They should separate easily.
Place the flower bulbs in the water. Soak for three to four hours. 
You can also soak overnight, but don't leave bulbs in water more than eight hours or they will absorb too much water and rot.
Plant the bulbs in well-drained soil roughly twice as deep as the bulb is long. Plant as soon as possible after you get them.
Requirements Of The Tacca  Plant
Light: Tacca needs a northern, eastern or western exposure of shade or partial sun.Temperature: Maintain temperatures indoors above 60° degrees Fahrenheit
Humidity: The bat plant is an understory plant growing in high humidity areas. Keep plants above 50% of higher humidity. Plants will tolerate lower humidity levels.
Watering: Allow soil to dry out between waterings. Water thoroughly until the soil is completely saturated and soil runs out the bottom of the pot. Try submerging the whole pot and plant into a bucket of water until all air bubbles stop. Drain off excess water. Overwatering and wet soil will cause root rot.
Fertilizer: Feed the bat flower with a balanced liquid fertilizer at 1/3 strenghth every two weeks during the growing season.
Pruning: Remove old leaves as they die off.
Insects and Disease: Tacca flowers experience few insect problems.
However if at all you feel that the bulbs are not in satisfactory condition, please mail us and we shall assist you immediately with new and fresh bulbs.
