Growing Day Dreamer

Plant your tubers in full sun after your last frost date. Pinch your plant once it reaches about knee height to encourage branching and more blooms. Your stems will be ready to harvest when the outermost petals are fully open. Cut early in the morning and condition in cool water before arranging. Day Dreamer is a reliable tuber producer, so expect a good harvest from your clumps at season's end.

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