Tube Rose Live Flower Plant – Pink

Maintaining tuberose plants involves a few key practices to ensure they thrive:

1. Location: Plant tuberoses in a sunny spot with well-draining soil. They need at least 6-8 hours of full sun daily.
2. Watering: Keep the soil consistently moist, especially during the growing season, but avoid waterlogging. Water the plant regularly, allowing the top inch of soil to dry out between waterings.
3. Soil: Use well-draining soil rich in organic matter. A mix of garden soil with compost or well-rotted manure works well.
4. Fertilization: Feed tuberoses with a balanced, all-purpose fertilizer every 4-6 weeks during the growing season (spring and summer) to promote healthy growth and flowering.
5. Pruning: Remove spent flowers to encourage more blooms and prevent disease. Cut back the flower stalks after blooming.
6. Winter Care: In cooler climates, dig up the bulbs after the foliage dies back in the fall. Store them in a cool, dry place over winter and replant them in the spring.
7. Pests and Diseases: Watch out for common pests like aphids and spider mites. Ensure good air circulation to prevent fungal diseases. Treat any issues promptly with appropriate measures.

By following these guidelines, you can enjoy the beauty and fragrance of tuberose plants throughout their growing season.
