Growing Bloomquist Exhilarating

Plant in full sun with good air circulation, and set your support stakes at planting time so stems are guided as they grow. Pinch above the fourth leaf pair to encourage more lateral branches and a longer cutting season. Watch for powdery mildew in humid conditions and remove any affected leaves promptly to keep plants productive through autumn.

Spacing: Space roughly 2–3 ft apart
Staking: Stake early — stems carry heavy blooms and lean in wind
