Water
Water consistently, especially during dry spells, to maintain evenly moist soil. Allow the top inch of soil to dry slightly between waterings. Avoid waterlogged conditions, which can lead to root rot.
Reduce watering in autumn as growth slows.

Reduce watering in autumn as growth slows.
Deadhead spent flowers regularly to encourage continuous blooming and prevent seed production. In late autumn or early spring, cut back faded flower stalks and foliage to about 10-15 cm above the ground to tidy the plant and prepare it for winter.
Propagate by division in early spring or autumn. Carefully dig up the plant and divide the root ball into sections, ensuring each section has healthy roots and shoots. Replant divisions promptly into well-prepared soil.
Repot established plants every 2-3 years, ideally in early spring before new growth begins. Choose a pot that is only slightly larger than the current one.
This is also a good time to divide overgrown clumps, which revitalizes the plant.
