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. Apply a balanced all-purpose fertilizer (e.g., 10-10-10) in spring when growth resumes.

Deadhead after flowering for rebloom. In early spring, cut old foliage to the ground; divide every 3-4 years at this time, if desired.

Water Requirements: Water soil fully, then let slightly dry out before next watering. Do not let get soggy or waterlogged.

Plants arrived healthy. I cannot provide a five star rating until the plants bloom and I see the results.

I looked for this variety everywhere locally, but they were all sold out. So, reluctantly I ordered them online not expecting much.
But the plants arrived promptly, and looked great. I planted them immediately and they took off growing at once. Healthy little buggers!
