Hemizygia hybrid by the name of 'Candy Kisses' is an upright perennial plant which produces sprays of blooms that are prominently held above the foliage. Prune lightly after flowering to make it more compact and attractive.
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.
For best results plant in a sunny to partly shaded position in moist well-drained soil. Prefers a warm, frost free position.
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.
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.
