    Nursery contributed plant descriptions

    Flowering a bit earlier than the double form, with top of the stalk florettes that open more dependably, thes single flower form Mexican tuberose is a favorite of flower arrangers. Why Grow Tuberose? Used for centuries in perfumes and scented oils Easy to grow in full sun settings Lovely, long lasting cut flowers Our southern U.S. grower ships us tuberose clumps, rather than the usual individual bulbs. The clumps are harvested and washed, but not divided. Tuberose clumps produce multiple sprouts and flowering stems, translating into larger plants, extra flowers and more killer fragrance wafting over the patio as you enjoy dinner.
