Growing Kenora Amethyst

Stake at planting since plants can reach five feet in good conditions. Pinch at four to five leaf nodes to multiply branching and boost stem count through summer. Water at the base consistently once established, and feed with a low-nitrogen fertilizer every two to three weeks once buds appear. Cut in the cool of the morning and strip lower foliage to extend freshness.

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