About Hollyhill Golden Glow
A recent introduction (2025) that has begun appearing in commercial catalogues.
Growing Hollyhill Golden Glow
Stake early, as mature plants regularly reach five feet or more and need support before wind becomes a factor. Pinch above the third leaf pair when seedlings reach about a foot tall to encourage a well-branched framework. Water deeply at the root zone and feed every two to three weeks with a low-nitrogen formula once buds set. Disbud side buds on show stems if you want larger, more uniform blooms for exhibition.
- Spacing
- Space about 3 ft apart
- Staking
- Stake early — stems carry heavy blooms and lean in wind
