Lay the tuber horizontally with its eye facing upward, about 4–6 inches deep. Avoid waterlogged soil. Water regularly once growth begins, provide support as stems develop, and remove spent blooms to encourage continued flowering. In cold climates, lift tubers after the first frost and store them in a cool, frost-free location until spring.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003e\u003cem\u003eTubers naturally vary in size and shape.
