Growing Tips for South African Gardens 🌱

Soil: Plant in loose, well-draining soil enriched with compost. Add sand if your soil is clay-heavy. Mulch to keep roots cool and conserve moisture.

Sunlight: Loves full sun. In very hot inland areas, a touch of midday shade will keep blooms fresh.

Planting:

  • Season: October – December.

  • Depth: 8 cm, with the tuber laid horizontally.

  • Spacing: 25–40 cm apart for neat terrace growth.

Watering: Water deeply every 3–4 days, ensuring soil stays moist but not soggy.

Feeding: Apply Hadeco Bulb Food every few weeks for strong growth and prolific flowering.

Care:

  • Pinch early shoots for bushier plants.

  • Deadhead spent blooms for continuous flowering.

  • Stake if necessary, especially in windy spots.

  • Lift tubers in July, trim stems to 5 cm, and store in a dry, cool place until spring.
