1. Planting: Plant or repot within 4 weeks of arrival. Choose a location with full sun and well-draining soil for optimal growth.
2. Watering: Allow the soil to dry out completely between waterings. This plant thrives on minimal moisture as it is very drought tolerant.
3. Pruning: Deadhead spent blooms as they appear to encourage further flowering and maintain a neat appearance.
4. Fertilizing: Fertilize sparingly in the spring with a balanced, slow-release fertilizer to support healthy growth during the active season.
