Homeowner Growing Tips

Grow in full sun, preferably, or dappled shade. Avoid crowding. Plant in moist, well-drained, moderately fertile soil. Amend with compost before planting. Water new plantings regularly to establish. Thereafter, do not allow plants to dry out in summer. Deadhead after flowering for rebloom. In early spring, cut old foliage to the ground; divide every 2-3 years at this time, if desired. Apply a balanced all-purpose fertilizer (e.g., 10-10-10) in spring when growth resumes.

excellant plants

Planted 3rd week of May (SE Mi) in 6 hr sun. Tilled soil to 8", amended with manure compost, re-tilled to mix. Beautiful flowers by mid-June, Ruby-throated Hummingbirds took interest. Still in bllom as of early Aug. Do utilize stakes and approach with care as the stems are very fragile.
