Homeowner Growing and Maintenance Tips:

Prefers average to organically rich, fertile, medium moisture, well-drained soil and full sun. Tolerates light shade. Avoid soggy soils and full shade. Prune right after flowering to reduce size and in winter to thin out old stems. Deadhead spent flowers. Does best in cool summer climates. Root suckers can be removed to prevent colonial spread. Mulching is beneficial.
