Growing Miss Delilah

Plant in full sun and pinch the main stem when your plant reaches about knee height to encourage branching and abundant bloom. Harvest stems when the flower is three-quarters open and the back petals feel firm and lush rather than papery. Condition in warm water before arranging.

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