| USES: |
They are wonderful in garden beds and make great pot plants as they have a lovely tight mounding habit so will not flop over the edge of the pot too much. They look stunning as a flowering boarder plant too as they can be trimmed to shape and even hedged if required. The large flowers invite many beneficial insects to your garden so are wonderful close to a veggie patch. |
| CARE: |
In autumn you can prune plants back to maintain compact growth and new flowers, however never prune into dead wood as they will struggle to re shoot nicely. For best results plant in an area with full sun and frost protection for maximum flowering and best growth. Fertilise each season to encourage more flowers. They are best in well-drained soil and while they can handle dry periods, they flower better with consistent watering and regular removal of dead flowers. |
