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