Care and Watering

Maintenance

Deadhead spent blooms to sustain color. Lightly prune after flowering to maintain form; remove any damaged stems in late winter in mild climates.

Location

Choose a sunny, breezy spot with good air flow. Group with other drought-tolerant perennials for a robust display.

Tips

Feed lightly in spring, avoid heavy fertilization, and monitor for aphids. It’s a reliable pollinator magnet and easy to propagate from cuttings.
