FEATURES

This tidy, well-branched selection is beautiful in spring and fall container recipes, and also blooms longer into the summer in the Midwest and Northeast due to better heat tolerance.

Maintenance Notes:
Plants may be trimmed back with a sharp pair of scissors or pruning shears at anytime, although this is not usually necessary. Plants may flush out of flower if night temperatures begin to stay in the upper 70s or above. If this happens, a light trim to shape them would be beneficial. The trim will increase branching and will result in more flowers once the temperatures fall.
