Homeowner Growing and Maintenance Tips:
Prefers a full fun location with moist, well draining soil. Water regulary when top 2 inches of soil are dry to prevent root rot. Fertilize with all purpose fertlizer throughout the growing season. Dead heading is not needed with angelonia plants. Pruning mid-season ensures a bushy plant and fresh flush of blooms.
