Care Guide: Keep the Party Going
- Light: Thrives in part to full shade. It’s happiest in dappled sunlight but can handle a little morning sun if it’s not too harsh.
- Soil: Prefers moist, well-draining soil rich in organic matter. Think loamy, leaf-litter vibes for optimal growth.
- Watering: Keep the soil consistently moist, especially during dry spells—hydration is key to those vibrant blooms.
- Feeding: A spring sprinkle of compost or balanced fertilizer fuels its energy for a colorful bloom season.
- Pruning: Snip off spent flowers to keep it tidy, and remove older leaves as needed to let fresh foliage shine.
- Hardiness: Hardy down to USDA zone 3, it shrugs off frosty winters and comes back every spring for an encore.
