Advice from our agronomist
Planting. Plant diascia after the last frosts (end of May) in a sunny spot with free-draining soil. Space plants 20-25 cm apart.
Care. Deadhead spent flowers and trim the longest stems in midsummer, this brings a second flush of bloom and keeps the plant compact.
Watering and feeding. Water regularly but avoid waterlogging. Feed every 2 weeks with a liquid fertiliser for flowering plants.
Winter and pruning. It does not overwinter outdoors in Estonia. If desired, move it to a bright cool room in autumn and cut back by a third.
