How to Care for the Plant

Water
Water the plant when the top 3 inches of soil are dry. If the plant is already established, it can also tolerate drought conditions. If you live in a cold-winter climate, you can help prevent common winter problems, such as desiccation, by watering the plants well in the fall, before the ground freezes.
Pruning
Spent flowers should be removed after flowering.
Fertilizer
If desired, you can feed it once a year in the fall, using a small amount of fertilizer applied at least 2 inches from the plant's trunk.

Soil
Grows easily in average, medium moisture, well-drained soil. It prefers alkaline soil but will tolerate many different soil conditions, including compacted soil, various pH levels, and dry (drought) soil conditions. But it does not do well in wet soil.
