🌿 Care Guide

Watering

Requires regular, thorough watering to keep soil evenly moist, but avoid standing water or wet feet.

Fertilizer

Apply a flower-boosting fertilizer periodically from early spring through the active growing season; stop feeding before winter.

Pruning

Prune in early spring after the danger of frost has passed and before new growth begins; deadheading throughout the season encourages continued blooming.

Pests & Diseases

Generally disease resistant, though gardeners should be aware it is a spiny plant.
