Planting & Care

When your bare root starter plant arrives, unpack it immediately and soak the roots in water for 1-2 hours before planting. Choose a location with well-draining soil and plenty of sunlight. Dig a hole large enough to accommodate the roots, place the plant so the crown is at soil level, and backfill with soil. Water thoroughly after planting and keep the soil consistently moist until new growth appears. For container growing, use a high-quality potting mix and ensure the pot has drainage holes.

Once established, water regularly, especially during dry spells. Fertilize monthly during the growing season with a balanced fertilizer to encourage blooming. Prune lightly to maintain shape and remove spent flowers to promote continued blooming. In cooler zones, bring container plants indoors before the first frost.
