Growing Guide
Plant in fertile, moisture-retentive but well-drained soil in full sun or partial shade. In Ireland, a sheltered position helps protect new spring growth from late frosts, while regular watering during dry spells encourages continuous flowering.
Apply a balanced fertiliser during the growing season and mulch in spring to help retain moisture and improve soil structure.
Wildlife
The tubular flowers provide a valuable source of nectar for bees and other pollinating insects throughout the flowering season.
Pruning
Leave the top growth in place over winter to help protect the crown. In early spring, once new growth begins, cut back any frost-damaged or dead stems to healthy buds and lightly shape the plant as required.
Perfect For
- Cottage gardens
- Mixed shrub borders
