Growing & Planting Instructions

When to Plant: Plant tubers in spring after all danger of frost has passed and soil temperatures have warmed to approximately 60°F.

Planting Depth: Plant tubers 4–6 inches deep in well-draining soil, with the eye facing upward.

Sunlight: Choose a location that receives at least 6–8 hours of direct sunlight daily for the best flower production.

Watering: Avoid excessive watering immediately after planting to prevent tuber rot. Once plants have sprouted and are actively growing, water deeply and consistently.

Pinching: Pinch the center growing tip when plants reach approximately 12 inches tall to encourage branching, longer stems, and increased flower production.

Support: Blizzard is a vigorous grower and benefits from staking or additional support as plants mature.

Harvesting: Cut blooms when they are approximately three-quarters open for the best vase life. Regular harvesting encourages continued flowering throughout the season.

Overwintering: In colder climates (generally USDA Zones 7 and below), dig and store tubers in a cool, frost-free location after the first killing frost for planting the following spring.
