Drop a stem into a vase and the color does something unusual: it reads pink in morning light and drifts toward lavender by afternoon. Dutch breeders at Gebr. Verwer spent years developing the Karma series for commercial flower growers, and Prospero became the variety florists actually order. That is how you know it works.

How to Grow It
Plant your tubers once the soil has warmed and all frost risk has passed. Pinch the central shoot when young growth is established to encourage branching and more stems per plant. Your plant responds well to consistent moisture but dislikes waterlogged roots, so make sure drainage is good. Stake early before the plant gets tall. Disbud side buds to channel energy into the stems you want to cut. Deadhead spent blooms regularly to keep production going deep into the season.
