Tips for success
Keep me thriving
I have low maintenance needs, but still appreciate a little attention. Observe the plant’s shape and new growth through the seasons, remove damaged material with clean tools and refresh the mulch when needed without piling it against the stem.
Pruning: Low maintenance I will benefit from a light prune to shape to keep me looking good.
Flowering: I am known to flower throughout the year. Seasonal conditions can shift the timing and intensity of the display. Observe the plant rather than pruning by the calendar alone, particularly while buds or flowers are forming.
Watering: Even after I am established, check the soil at root depth periodically. Water slowly and deeply during extended dry periods and unusually hot or windy weather rather than watering frequently and shallowly. Monitor moisture more closely while the roots are still spreading into the surrounding soil.
