✂️ Care
Remove spent flowers daily to encourage continuous production of new blooms. Light pruning of stems after the main bloom period maintains a neat silhouette and encourages a second wave of flowering.
Mulch lightly around the base to retain moisture and gradually enrich the soil. Once well-established, this variety requires very little intervention and tolerates dry conditions well.
