Growing New Baby

Plant in full sun in moist, well-drained soil after your last frost date. Stake plants early, as they grow tall and the stems need support to keep blooms upright. Deadhead regularly to encourage continuous flowering, and pinch back early growth to promote a bushier plant with more stems. Lift and store tubers after the first frost in colder climates.

Spacing: Space roughly 2–3 ft apart
Staking: Staking recommended once buds set
