Planting & Care
1. Planting: Plant or repot within 4 weeks of arrival. Choose a sunny location in your garden, ensuring that the soil is well-draining. Dig a hole that's about twice the size of the root ball, and gently place your plant in the ground. Fill in the surrounding soil and press down lightly to eliminate air pockets.
2. Watering: This flower requires regular watering, especially during the first growing season to establish its roots. Water deeply once a week or more often in extremely dry conditions. Aim to keep the soil consistently moist, but be careful not to overwater.
3. Pruning: To promote a bushier growth habit and encourage more blooms, prune back the plant lightly during the growing season. Remove any dead or yellowing leaves to keep it looking tidy.
4. Fertilizing: Fertilize sparingly, as too much can detract from blooming. A balanced, slow-release fertilizer in early spring is sufficient to support its growth and flowering performance.
