Planting & Care

Choose a location with full sun to partial shade, ensuring at least 4–6 hours of direct sunlight daily for optimal blooming. Plant in acidic, well-draining soil; amend heavy clay with compost if necessary to prevent waterlogging. Water regularly to keep soil consistently moist but never soggy. While fertilization is optional, light feeding in spring can enhance bloom production and plant vigor. Prune lightly after each bloom cycle if desired to maintain a compact form.
