Planting guide

Plant in fertile, moist but well-drained soil in a sunny or partially shaded position. Incorporate compost before planting and water regularly while establishing. Deadheading spent flowers will encourage continued blooming throughout the season.

Care tips

Deadhead regularly to extend the flowering season and divide mature clumps every few years to maintain vigour. Avoid allowing plants to sit in overly wet winter soil.

Winter care

Cut back faded flower stems and remove tired foliage in autumn or late winter. Apply a light mulch around the crown in colder areas to help protect roots during prolonged frosts.
