Essentials for Success
For thriving plants, use Incredisoil Premium Potting Soil for containers or Incredisoil Premium Planting Mix for garden beds. Pair either with Espoma Bio-Tone Starter Fertilizer to promote healthy root growth and reduce transplant stress.
Care
Provide enriched, slightly acidic, well-drained, moist soil. Plant with crown slightly below soil level. Water deeply, regularly in first growing season to establish an extensive root system; reduce frequency once established. Apply an annual side dressing of organic compost. Remove spent blooms. Prune back foliage in the fall.
