PLANTING GUIDE
Soil: Plant in moist, well drained soil. Thrives in a wide range of soils.
Light: Full sun
Water: Average to moist. Water weekly, or more often in extreme heat, until established. Watering may be reduced after establishment.
Spacing: 12-16 inches
Fertilizing: Seldom needs fertilizing if soil is good to average. On very poor soils, can feed lightly with a general purpose, or timed release fertilizer (such as "Osmocote"), before new growth begins in spring.
Winterizing: No special care needed. Remove spent foliage in spring before new growth appears.
Maintenance & pruning: For repeated bloom, shear old flowers.Reviews
