Care

Planting & Growing
Provide organically rich, well-drained, quality garden soil. Site in a sunny location once threat of spring frost has passed. Allow soil to dry between waterings; over-watering will reduce blooming. Promptly remove spent blooms to encourage more prolific flowering and a longer bloom period. Hardy to 40°F.
