Homeowner Growing Tips

Grow in full sun, in fertile, acidic, moist, well-drained soil. Amend with compost before planting. Avoid heavy soils and excessive winter moisture. Deadhead to promote continued flower production. Mulch for the winter in Zone 5. Divide in spring, if desired.

Water Requirements: Water soil fully, then let moderately dry out before next watering.
