Your care routine
Watering
Water when the surface begins to dry; soak, then let excess drain.
Soil & drainage
Well-drained potting mix for containers; fertile, freely draining soil in garden beds.
Fertilizer
Use balanced liquid flower fertilizer every 2–4 weeks during active growth at the product label rate; stop when dormant.
Temperature
Prefers cool growing weather; shelter fresh greenhouse plants from hard frost and avoid prolonged summer heat.
Humidity
Outdoor humidity is suitable; allow airflow and avoid prolonged wet foliage.
Through the seasons
In Metro Vancouver, protect from frost and prolonged winter rain; seasonal display does not imply winter hardiness. Confirm cultivar hardiness before leaving outdoors.
When your plant needs help
- Tuber rot in wet conditions
- slug damage
Pets & little ones
Sap can irritate skin and ingestion can be harmful; keep away from pets and children and wear gloves.
