Care Instructions
Planting:
Select a sunny location with at least 6 hours of direct sunlight per day. Plant in well-draining soil, positioning the bud union slightly above the soil surface. Space plants 2–3 feet apart to allow proper airflow and healthy growth.
Watering:
Water deeply when the top inch of soil is dry, ensuring moisture reaches the roots. Avoid wetting foliage to prevent fungal disease. Morning watering is best so leaves dry before evening.
Pruning:
Regularly remove dead or damaged stems and spent blooms to encourage new growth and repeat flowering. In late winter or early spring, prune back to healthy buds to shape the plant.
Pest Control:
Monitor for aphids, spider mites, and Japanese beetles. Treat infestations with neem oil or organic insecticidal soap. Keep the area clear of fallen leaves and debris to reduce pest habitats.
Soil Tips:
Flori Doris Day thrives in slightly acidic, well-draining soil enriched with compost or organic matter. Amend heavy clay soils with sand or perlite to improve drainage and prevent root rot, ensuring strong and healthy growth.
