Planting guide

Plant in spring or autumn in fertile, well-drained soil in a sunny position. Avoid overly wet conditions, especially during winter.

Care tips

Deadhead lightly to encourage continued blooms and cut back old growth in spring. Avoid excessive feeding, which can lead to floppy stems.

Winter care

Leave faded stems in place over winter to help protect the crown. Cut back in early spring when fresh growth emerges and ensure soil remains free draining.
