Planting Tips:
- Location: Prefers full sun with well-drained, sandy, or rocky soils. Avoid planting in areas with heavy clay or excessive moisture.
- Watering: Water deeply after planting to help roots establish and regularly for the first few weeks, then reduce watering as plants become established.
- Maintenance: Minimal care required. There's no need to deadhead the flowers, as allowing them to go to seed provides a valuable food source for birds. Leaving the stems standing in the fall offers overwintering sites for beneficial insects. If desired, cut back the stems in late spring after pollinators have emerged.
