Período de floración
Guía de cuidados
Plant tubers after the last frost (May) in full sun in nutrient-rich, well-drained soil. Set tubers 10-15 cm deep with the eye facing up. Water regularly and generously, especially during dry periods. Feed every two weeks with a potassium-rich fertiliser during flowering. In cold regions, lift tubers after the first frost and store frost-free.
Consejos de poda
Deadhead spent flowers regularly to encourage continuous blooming. Pinch out young plants at about 30 cm height to promote branching. Stake tall cultivars with a sturdy support. After the first frost, cut stems back to 15 cm before lifting tubers.
