✂️ Care
Very easy to grow. Lightly prune in spring to maintain a balanced shape and encourage abundant flowering. Apply an organic mulch at the base to retain soil moisture.
A balanced fertilization at the beginning of the growing season prolongs and intensifies flowering.
No staking is needed thanks to its naturally strong structure and stable upright habit.
This hardy shrub offers a remarkable visual presence in hedges, as a standalone plant, or as a focal point, with its purple-pink flowers illuminating the garden from July to October.
