Water
Water regularly to keep the soil consistently moist but not waterlogged. Allow the top centimeter of soil to dry out between waterings.
Reduce watering in winter when the plant is dormant, providing just enough to prevent complete drying.

Reduce watering in winter when the plant is dormant, providing just enough to prevent complete drying.
Deadhead spent flowers regularly to encourage more blooms and maintain a tidy appearance. Cut back the foliage to the ground after it yellows and dies back in late autumn or early winter, which helps prevent fungal diseases.
Propagate by division in early spring or autumn. Carefully dig up the clumps and divide them into smaller sections, ensuring each division has roots and at least one bud. Replant immediately into well-draining soil.
Repot young plants annually or every two years in spring. Mature plants can be left undisturbed for longer periods. Use a well-draining potting mix and a pot only slightly larger than the current root ball.
