Growing Guide & Care Tips

• Planting Time: Best planted in spring after the last frost, or early autumn in milder regions.
• Soil Preference: Prefers well-drained, fertile soil; add compost to enrich heavy clay or sandy soils.
• Sunlight Needs: Grows best in full sun to partial shade—ideal for most UK gardens.
• Watering: Keep soil moist during active growth but avoid waterlogging. Established plants tolerate short dry spells.
• Feeding: Apply a balanced fertiliser monthly through the growing season for best results.
• Hardiness: Hardy throughout most of the UK (USDA zones 7–9); mulch in colder areas for winter protection.
• Pruning: Remove faded stems at ground level after flowering to encourage new growth and more blooms.

Design Ideas & Companion Planting

• Create vibrant patio displays by pairing with Salvia or Nepeta for contrasting blue tones.
• Add to mixed borders with hardy geraniums or ornamental grasses for layered texture and colour.
• The compact size makes them ideal for small-space gardening or as a floral highlight in cottage-style schemes.
