Choose a location that receives full sun to partial shade and has well-drained soil. Dig a hole twice as wide and the same depth as the root ball. Place the plant in the center, backfill with soil, and water thoroughly. 2. Watering: Water deeply during the first growing season to establish a strong root system. Once established, the plant is drought-tolerant and requires minimal watering. Check the soil moisture occasionally, especially during dry spells. 3. Pruning: Prune back any spent flower stalks after blooming to encourage a tidy appearance and healthy growth. You may also remove any dead or damaged leaves throughout the growing season. 4. Fertilizing: Fertilize once in early spring with a balanced, slow-release fertilizer to promote healthy growth. Avoid over-fertilizing, as this can lead to excessive leaf growth at the expense of blooms.
