How to Care for the Plant
Water
Best flower production takes full sun, which needs more watering during the hottest time of the year.
Pruning
Cut back any dead stems in late winter, and if the plants overwinter without dying back, cut them to ground level, as they will resprout from underground stems called rhizomes.
Sunlight
Sun/Part Shade.
