Well-drained, alkaline or neutral sandy soil. Avoid heavy clay or waterlogged conditions.
Water regularly during active growth in spring. Reduce significantly after flowering to induce dormancy; keep dry in summer heat.
Full sun exposure is critical for flowering and vigor. Tolerates partial shade but blooms may be reduced.
Apply slow-release fertilizer in early spring only. Avoid overfeeding as this promotes foliage at expense of flowers.
Cut back dead foliage after flowering finishes and seeds disperse to prevent self-seeding.
These are the insects and pathogens that commonly interact with this plant, including pests, parasites, and organisms typically associated with its care.
