Care & maintenance

Plant in well-drained, organically rich soil. Provide a layer of mulch to conserve moisture and regulate soil temperature. Remove old, damaged, or brown leaves in late winter before new flower stalks emerge to prevent disease and improve appearance. Fertilize lightly in early spring with a balanced granular fertilizer.
