Planting Instructions (From a 3.5" Pot into the Ground)

1. Choose the Location

• Select a sunny location with fertile, well-drained soil.
• Ideal for borders, pollinator gardens, and focal plantings.

2. Prepare the Soil

• Loosen soil 10–12 inches deep.
• Add compost or organic matter to improve fertility and moisture retention.

3. Dig the Hole

• Dig a hole twice as wide as the 3.5" pot and equal depth.

4. Remove from Pot

• Gently remove the plant and loosen any circling roots.

5. Plant

• Place the root ball level with the surrounding soil surface.
• Backfill and firm soil gently.

6. Water

• Water thoroughly after planting.
• Keep soil consistently moist during establishment and active blooming.

7. Spacing

• Space plants 24–36 inches apart to allow mature growth and airflow.

Seasonal Care & Maintenance

• Cut stems back to a few inches above ground after frost or in early spring
• Apply mulch around the base to conserve moisture and protect roots
• Fertilize in spring to encourage vigorous growth and large blooms
• Plants emerge late in spring, so allow time for new growth to appear
