If you're a gardener who loves fragrant blooms, you're going to want Tuberose in your garden. Planting and Growing Care Planting Time:Plant tuberose bulbs in late spring after the last frost, when the soil has warmed up. Location:Choose a location with full sun. Tuberose requires at least 6-8 hours of sunlight per day. Soil:Plant tuberose in well-draining soil enriched with organic matter. A sandy or loamy soil mix works well. Ensure the soil pH is slightly acidic to neutral (6.0-7.0). Planting Depth and Spacing:Plant the bulbs 2-3 inches deep with the pointed side up and space them about 6-8 inches apart. Watering:Keep the soil consistently moist but not waterlogged. Water regularly during the growing season, especially in hot, dry periods. Reduce watering when the blooms start to fade. Fertilization:Apply a balanced fertilizer (such as 10-10-10) at planting and again mid-season to promote healthy growth and flowering. Support:Tuberose grows tall (up to 3 feet), so stake the plants or provide support as needed to prevent them from flopping over. Overwintering Tuberose in Canada Tuberose is not frost-hardy, so it needs to be lifted and stored during the winter in colder climates (zones 3-7).
