Watering, pruning, propagation, and repotting details from plant data
Provide consistent moisture during the active growing season. Allow the top inch of soil to dry out between waterings. Reduce watering significantly during the dormant period in winter.
Deadhead spent flowers to encourage reblooming and prevent self-seeding. Cut back the plant in late autumn or early spring to remove dead foliage and shape the plant for the new season.
Easily propagated from seed sown in spring or autumn. Division of established clumps in spring is also an effective method for increasing plant numbers.
Not typically a plant that requires frequent repotting. If grown in a container, repot every 2-3 years in spring into a slightly larger pot with fresh potting mix.
