Care & maintenance

Prefers well-drained, organically rich soil. Water regularly during dry periods, especially in the first year. Fertilize in early spring with a balanced slow-release fertilizer. Deadhead spent blooms for a tidier appearance, though this is not strictly necessary for continued flowering. Protect from harsh winter winds.
