Advice from our agronomist
Planting Plant from April to September, 40–50 cm apart. Water the pot thoroughly before planting and let the root ball soak.
Position Choose a sunny or lightly semi-shaded spot and fertile, moist but well-drained soil.
Care Water generously in dry spells. An airy planting helps prevent powdery mildew. Divide the clump every 3–4 years.
Feeding and harvest Feed with compost in spring. Flowers from July to September; remove faded flower heads to prolong flowering. Cut back in autumn; hardy.
