✂️ Maintenance
Very hardy and low-maintenance. Cut back stems to ground level in early spring before new growth emerges to maintain a compact shape and encourage vigorous foliage with bright white stripes.
Apply a light mulch around the base to improve drainage and gradually enrich the soil. Light fertilization in spring supports vigorous growth, especially in poor soils.
