Plant Profile: Incarvillea

This summer-blooming bulb thrives in sunny to partially shaded areas, showcasing trumpet-shaped flowers that emerge atop robust stems. To protect them from damage caused by temperatures dropping below 25 degrees F (2C), they can be stored over the winter. The tuberous roots or containers should be kept slightly moist and stored at a temperature of 35 degrees F (2C). When planting, ensure that the tubers are buried to a depth of 3 inches.
