Watering, pruning, propagation, and repotting details from plant data
Keep the soil consistently moist but not waterlogged. Water thoroughly when the top 2-3 cm of soil feels dry to the touch. Reduce watering in winter when the plant is dormant.
Overwatering can lead to root rot, so ensure good drainage.
Prune in late winter or early spring before new growth emerges. Cut back old flower stalks and any damaged or dead stems to the ground. This encourages vigorous new growth and maintains a tidy appearance.
Remove any crossing or weak stems to improve air circulation.
Propagate by division in early spring or autumn. Carefully dig up the plant and divide the root ball into sections, ensuring each section has roots and shoots. Replant divisions immediately into well-prepared soil.
Fresh seeds can also be sown in autumn.
Repot container-grown plants every 2-3 years in early spring before growth starts. Choose a pot that is slightly larger than the current one. Use a well-draining potting mix, preferably one rich in organic matter.
Water thoroughly after repotting.
