Growing Peaches-N-Cream
Plant tubers in full sun after soil has warmed, spacing them about a foot apart to encourage air circulation. Pinch above the third set of leaves when plants reach about a foot tall to promote branching and more blooms per plant. Feed with a low-nitrogen fertilizer once buds appear, and water deeply but infrequently. Cut blooms when three-quarters open to get the best staying power in water.
- Spacing
- Space roughly 2–3 ft apart
- Staking
- Stake early — stems carry heavy blooms and lean in wind
