Glorious superba

Visited the Tatton Park show and my wife purchased a Glorisa lily dormant tuber my question is what to do with it now surely it should be growing
So do I pot it up normally and hope it doesn't start growing or is there a way to store it and keep for the spring
Thanks to all in advance

 

It does seem late to be having tubers that have not yet started into growth.
Having said that i don't think you stand a chance of keeping them dormant until next year.
Pot them up and as much heat and sun as you can give them

 

@stumorphmac I grew from seed a few years ago and can confirm they are late into growth. I have a couple of pots one sprouted early June and it's first flower has just opened and is about 3 ft tall; the other came through at the end of June and is about 1 ft tall. I let mine climb up a length of string, when the foliage dies back I tidy up and overwinter dry in the same greenhouse it's growing in.

 

Sore subject! Gloriosa was supposed to be the star of my terrace pots this year, but of 5 tubers ordered and received in March, only one made any growth, the others all rotted. Perhaps I tried to get them going far too early? The lone survivor has flowered, but you couldn't call it spectacular Ah well, some you win, some you lose......

 

I'd call it interesting rather than spectacular. There are a number of different species though.

 

Below is a flower of mine. The colours develop over several days as it matures.
An interesting point is that the style has a right angle bend in it carrying the stigma out to the side. This is an attempt to prevent self pollination when an insect flies in snd picks up pollen from the stamens hanging down.
