Planting Time
Wondering when to plant the Illini Warrior? The optimal periods are spring (March to May) or autumn (September to November) when the plant is dormant.
Planting Depth
Plant the rhizome at a depth of 10 to 15 cm, ensuring the buds are just below the soil surface and facing upwards.
Spacing
Allow a gap of 60 to 80 cm between plants to ensure sufficient room for growth and the formation of impressive clumps.
Planting Method
Prepare the ground by thoroughly loosening the soil and enriching it with compost. Dig a hole of the right depth, place the rhizome, cover with soil, and gently firm it down. Water generously after planting to aid rooting.
Position
The Illini Warrior flourishes best in sunny spots or light partial shade, promoting abundant blooms.
Soil
It prefers fertile, humus-rich soil with good drainage and a neutral to slightly acidic pH level.
Care
Regular watering is crucial, especially during dry spells, but avoid waterlogging the soil. Springtime multi-component fertilisation and summer application of flowering-supporting fertilisers ensure lush growth and vibrant flowers. Support tall stems to prevent breakage. After flowering, remove spent blooms to encourage further growth.
