Growing Coralie
Pinch early to encourage branching and a bigger stem count for the rest of the season. Stake soon after planting, as tall stems need support before the first buds form. Feed with a low-nitrogen fertilizer once buds appear and keep soil consistently moist. Cut blooms at the three-quarter-open stage to maximize longevity in arrangements.
- Spacing
- Space about 3 ft apart
- Staking
- Stake early — stems carry heavy blooms and lean in wind
