Growing Tropical

Plant tubers in full sun after your last frost date, setting them about four inches deep in well-drained soil. Pinch out the central growing tip once plants reach knee height to encourage side shoots and maximize flower count. Water regularly at the base and apply a low-nitrogen fertilizer every few weeks once buds form. Stake early, as stems can reach three feet or more. Cut blooms frequently to keep new buds coming until frost.

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