How to care for Flame
- First, choose a well-draining soil mix with a pH level between 6.0-6.5.
- Plant the rhizomes 3-4 inches deep and 12-18 inches apart in a sunny or partially shaded location, ideally receiving 6 hours of sunlight daily.
- Keep the soil consistently moist but avoid over-watering, as this can lead to root rot.
- Fertilize monthly with a balanced liquid fertilizer during the growing season.
- In colder climates, dig up the rhizomes and store them in a cool, dry place during winter.
- Provide adequate support to prevent the tall flower stems from toppling over
- Deadhead spent blooms to encourage further flowering.
