Growing Dikara Superb
Plant tubers in full sun after your last frost date and stake early -- stems grow tall and the weight of steady bloom production benefits from support. Pinch the central shoot when plants reach knee height to promote branching. Water at the base consistently during dry stretches rather than overhead. Cut stems early in the morning once buds are nearly open to maximize fresh-water uptake.
- Spacing
- Space roughly 2–3 ft apart
- Staking
- Stake early — stems carry heavy blooms and lean in wind
