Plant summer flowers in well-draining soil and a sunny spot for the best blooms. Water deeply but avoid overwatering, and add mulch to retain moisture. Regular feeding with a balanced fertilizer helps keep plants healthy. Deadheading—removing faded flowers—encourages continuous blooming and prevents the plant from using energy on seed production

We expect to have our final flower bulbs/tubers in stock by the end of January. Orders will be processed starting in February, and delivery may take 2-4 business days.
