Planting & Care

Select a location with full sun and well-drained soil, then dig a planting hole twice as wide as the root ball but equal in depth. Water thoroughly after planting and apply a 3-inch layer of mulch around the base to suppress weeds. For container growing, use a pot roughly double the size of the nursery container with quality potting soil. Water weekly or when the top 3 inches of soil feel dry, checking containers more frequently. This durable perennial requires virtually no maintenance once established and will reward you with years of vibrant blooms.
