Homeowner Growing and Maintenance Tips:
Grow for two years before harvesting stems. Plant in loose and well-drained soils high in organic matter content. Apply mulch to keep roots cool in summertime heat. Remove flower stalks as they appear to keep all plant energy producing foliage.
Typically arrives in our nursery late March/early April.
