Growing Snowflake

Pinch your plant when it reaches about knee height to encourage branching and more blooms. Give it full sun and consistent moisture for the strongest stems. Harvest when blooms are about three-quarters open, checking the back of each flower for firm, lush petals. Condition stems in cool water right after cutting.

Spacing
Space about 3 ft apart
Staking
