Key traits and growing stats from plant data
Watering, pruning, propagation, and repotting details from plant data
Water regularly when the top 2-3 cm of soil feels dry, typically during the growing season. Reduce watering in fall and winter to prevent waterlogged roots, especially in cooler climates.
Ensure good drainage to avoid root rot. Allow soil to dry slightly between waterings.
Prune back dead or faded flower stalks after blooming to encourage reblooming and maintain a tidy appearance. In late fall or early spring, trim away any dead or damaged foliage to promote new growth.
Remove spent flower heads to prevent self-seeding if undesirable.
Propagate by division in early spring before new growth emerges. Carefully separate the root clumps, ensuring each section has roots and shoots. Plant divisions immediately in well-draining soil.
Can also be propagated from fresh seeds sown in fall or early spring.
Repot every 2-3 years or when the plant becomes root-bound, preferably in early spring before active growth begins. Choose a pot only slightly larger than the current one.
Use a well-draining potting mix, such as a combination of potting soil and perlite or sand.
