✂️ Care
Very easy to grow. Prune lightly in spring to maintain a balanced shape and encourage abundant flowering. Apply an organic mulch around the base to retain soil moisture.
Balanced fertilization at the beginning of the growing season prolongs and intensifies flowering.
No staking required due to its naturally strong structure and stable upright habit.
This hardy shrub provides a remarkable visual presence in hedges, as a specimen plant, or as a focal point, with its varied colored flowers illuminating the garden from July to October.
