Homeowner Growing and Maintenance Tips:
Plant in full sun. Prefers well-drained soil that is evenly moist but not waterlogged. Allow the soil to dry slightly between waterings. For continuous blooms, deadhead spent flowers and give light pruning mid-late summer to maintain a bushy shape. These plants are heat-tolerant but thrive in cooler conditions, blooming best in spring and fall.
