Growing Lee's Kewpie

Plant your tubers in full sun and give them consistent moisture. This variety rewards attentive watering with vigorous growth and generous stem production. Pinching early encourages a bushier plant and more lateral branches, which translates to a better cutting yield over the season. Stake promptly, as the plant reaches a good height and the bloom-laden stems benefit from support in windy sites. Deadhead regularly to keep the plant producing through the season.

Spacing
Space roughly 2–3 ft apart
Staking
Stake early β€” stems carry heavy blooms and lean in wind
