How to Grow It
Plant tubers after the last frost in a full-sun location with well-draining soil. Stake plants early to support the height they reach by midsummer. Pinch the central bud after the first set of leaves to encourage branching and more blooms. Deadhead regularly to extend the flowering season into fall.
