Care Notes

Plant in moist, well-drained soil with good drainage. Water moderately. Prune immediately after flowering; cutting later removes next year's buds. Remove suckers at the base to maintain a clean form. Generally trouble-free; blooms well in mild PNW climates without requiring hard winter chill.
