Growing Camano Roo

Pinch the main shoot once four pairs of leaves are up to push side branches and increase your stem count. Plant in full sun with well-draining soil and space tubers at least eighteen inches apart so air can move through the canopy. Water deeply twice a week once growth is established, and switch to a low-nitrogen bloom formula when buds appear. Cut stems in the early morning when blooms have just opened fully.

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