Care Instructions
Planting
Plant in partial shade with morning sun and afternoon protection. Set the root ball level with the soil surface and allow room for mature spread and airflow.
Watering
Keep soil evenly and consistently moist, especially during establishment. Water deeply 1–2 times weekly; adjust frequency during hot or dry spells.
Pruning
Prune immediately after flowering. Remove dead or damaged stems and lightly shape to preserve old-wood buds for next year’s blooms.
Pest Control
Monitor for aphids, mites, and fungal leaf issues. Treat with neem oil or insecticidal soap as needed, and avoid overhead watering to reduce disease.
Soil Tips
Use rich, well-draining soil with a slightly acidic to neutral pH. Add organic compost yearly to support healthy growth and vibrant blooms.
