Growing Bride to Be
Plant your tubers in full sun with good drainage and give them room to breathe. Spacing matters when the plants get tall. Pinch the central bud early to push your plant into multiple branching stems. Stake as it grows; your stems will thank you when the blooms arrive heavy and upward-facing. Cut when the flower is three-quarters open for the longest display in the vase. Keep deadheading to encourage continuous production through the season.
- Spacing
- Space roughly 2–3 ft apart
