      • Choose the right location

        The Ancient Mariner grows best in full sun (6+ hours a day) in rich, fertile, well-drained soil.

Deadhead spent blooms to encourage continued flowering through the season.

      • Prepare an appropriate hole

        Choose a pot that is 1-2 times larger than the current pot, ensuring there is adequent drainage to prevent waterlogging roots. Plan on repotting every 3-5 years.

        Plant at the same depth as in the pot, keeping the top of the root ball level with the soil.

      • Care and watering
