Growing Guide & Care Tips

• Planting Time: Start tubers indoors from February to April; transplant outdoors after last frost.
• Soil: Prefers fertile, well-drained but moist soil with a neutral to slightly acidic pH (6.0–7.0).
• Light Requirements: Thrives in partial shade; protect from harsh midday sun for best blooms.
• Watering: Keep soil consistently moist but never waterlogged; avoid wetting foliage to prevent rot.
• Feeding: Apply a balanced liquid fertiliser every 2–4 weeks during active growth and flowering.
• Deadheading: Remove faded blooms regularly to encourage more flowers and tidy growth.
• Overwintering: In colder regions (below USDA Zone 9), lift tubers after foliage dies back and store frost-free until spring.

Design Ideas & Companions

• Bedding schemes: Pair with shade-loving impatiens or ferns for layered texture.
• Pots & baskets: Combine with trailing lobelia or ivy for vibrant container displays.
• Cottage gardens: Mix among hostas or heucheras for a classic look.
