Watering

  • Soil: Prefers well-draining, sandy, or rocky soil; avoids heavy, wet conditions.
  • Watering: Low water needs; tolerates dry spells once established.
  • Maintenance: Deadhead spent flowers to prolong bloom time; cut back after flowering to encourage rebloom or maintain shape.
  • Hardiness: Hardy to USDA zones 5-9, standing up to heat, wind, and drought.
  • Additional Tips: Perfect for borders, cottage gardens, pollinator habitats, and wildflower meadows. Deer-resistant, pollinator-friendly, and a striking vertical accent!
