Homeowner Growing and Maintenance Tips:

Thrives in part-full shade.  Ideal location is morning/late afternoon sun; as too little sun and reduce number of blooms.  A consistent soil moisture is preferred.  Fertilize every 7-14 days.  Plants can benefit from pinching to promote bushiness.  No deadheading needed.
