Watering, pruning, propagation, and repotting details from plant data
Water regularly, keeping the soil consistently moist but not waterlogged. Allow the top few centimeters of soil to dry out between waterings, especially during warmer months.
Reduce watering significantly in winter to prevent root rot, as the plant enters a dormant phase.
Deadhead spent flowers to encourage more blooms and prevent self-seeding. Lightly trim back any leggy or overgrown stems in late spring or early summer to maintain a tidy shape.
Remove any dead or damaged foliage as needed.
Easily propagated from seeds sown in spring or by division of clumps in early spring or fall. Seeds can be sown directly into the garden or started indoors.
Division involves carefully separating the root ball into smaller sections, each with roots and shoots.
Repot container-grown plants every 2-3 years or when they become root-bound. Spring is the ideal time to repot. Use a well-draining potting mix.
If dividing, repot the sections into individual containers or back into the same pot if it's large enough.
