How to Grow

Partial shade to filtered sunlight is ideal. Water regularly, keeping soil moist but not soggy. Fertilize every 4–6 weeks during growing season. Prune spent flowers and weak branches to encourage new blooms. Monitor for pests like aphids or whiteflies and use organic treatments as needed.
