Durable, reliable, and easy to maintain, Blue Jangles brings long-lasting color and refined charm to any landscape. Its reblooming habit ensures a fresh flush of flowers even after early-season blooms fade.
Care Instructions
Planting
Plant in partial shade with morning sun. Use fertile, well-drained soil amended with compost to promote strong growth and vivid color.
Watering
Keep soil consistently moist. Deep watering during hot periods supports repeat blooming and healthy foliage.
Pruning
Prune lightly after flowering. Avoid heavy pruning because it blooms on old and new wood. Remove dead stems in early spring.
Pest Control
Watch for aphids, mites, and mildew. Improve airflow and treat with horticultural oil or insecticidal soap if needed.
Soil Tips
Rich, well-drained soil works best. Adjust soil pH to influence bloom color, acidic for blue, alkaline for pink. Mulch to retain moisture.
