Trimming Instructions- Remove old stems in spring to encourage new shoots. Avoid over-trimming to allow for seed production.
Fertilization Instructions- Feed sparingly with a balanced, slow-release fertilizer (e.g., 14-14-14) in spring; low feeding need. Over-fertilization can reduce bloom and attract aphids, especially in clay.
