Growing Tips for South African Gardens 🌱

Soil: Plant in rich, well-draining soil. If your garden soil is clay-heavy, add compost and sand to improve structure. Mulching helps retain moisture.

Sunlight: Full sun is best, though a touch of midday shade in very hot regions helps reduce water stress.

Planting:

  • Season: October – December.

  • Depth: 8 cm, with eyes facing up.

  • Spacing: 30–40 cm apart for lush displays.

Watering: Water every 3–4 days for about 10 minutes. Avoid soggy conditions.

Feeding: Use Hadeco Bulb Food 

Care:

  • Stake taller stems if needed.

  • Pinch early shoots for bushier plants.

  • Remove side buds if you want one larger bloom per stem.

  • Deadhead regularly for continuous flowering.

  • Lift tubers in July, cut stems back to 5 cm, and store in a cool dry place until next season.
