It could be 8" across & you can put as many bulbs in it that you can fit. Use good potting mix & water after planting. The bulbs then need to be placed in a cool area for 8-12 weeks. An old fridge would be good. Keep it above freezing, around 38 degrees. You may see some growth, but you don't need to do anything to them. After 12 weeks, remove it to a sunny location & water it well. The yellow growth will turn green & buds should start coming up.<br><b>References : </b><br>I know this from being in the landscape/greenhouse industry for 14 years.
