Planting Instructions (from a 3.5" pot into the ground):

2. Location: Choose a site with well-draining soil and dappled or morning sun. Avoid harsh afternoon sun.

3. Preparation: Dig a hole twice the width of the pot and equal in depth.

4. Planting: Remove the plant from its pot, gently loosen roots, and place in the hole with the crown level to the soil surface.

5. Backfill: Refill with soil, press gently to remove air pockets, and water thoroughly.

6. Spacing: Plant 18–24 inches apart to allow spreading.

7. Aftercare: Keep soil evenly moist during the first growing season. Apply mulch to conserve moisture and suppress weeds. Prune dead or yellowing stems to maintain shape. In colder zones, bring indoors before frost or treat as an annual.
