Care Guide
- Watering: Water deeply and regularly, especially during the hot summer months. Do not allow the soil to dry out completely, but also avoid overwatering.
- Maintenance: Pinch back new growth to encourage bushiness and more blooms. Keep an eye out for pests such as aphids or spider mites, and treat as necessary.
- Pruning: Prune back the plant in late winter or early spring before new growth appears. Remove any dead or diseased branches, as well as any old or woody growth.
- (Optional): Fertilize in early spring with a balanced, slow-release fertilizer. You can also fertilize again in mid-summer if desired.
