Care |
Cut
out old flowering stems down to the base of the plant.
Remove any leaves that scorch or become unsightly.
If foliage becomes unattractive in summer, shear down
to new growth. Do
not cut back in the fall.
Remove all dead leaves in Spring.
Plants may be divided every 5-10 years if desired. |
