🌿 Growing & Care Tips

Planting: Choose a sunny spot with well-draining, fertile soil. Full sun ensures the brightest color and most abundant bloom.
Spacing: Allow about 2.5–3 ft between plants to give space for fullness and good air circulation.
Maintenance: Prune in early spring to shape and remove any old or diseased canes. Cut old blooms to encourage new flushes.
Watering: Water regularly until established; once settled, provide consistent moisture to support bloom cycles and health.
