#ProPlantTips for Care:

While butterflies adore this nectar resource...rabbits and deer tend to leave it alone. If you live in an area with heavy pressure, please use repellent spray on the day you plant and reapply according to the label instructions.

• Full sun is best for flowering. Plant in well-drained soil where they will get at least six hours of sunlight a day. Provide a consistent amount of water for best results.
• Provide an enduring, life-long support with symbiotic Nature Hills Root Booster used in the planting hole. .
• Snip those incredible flowers for bouquets as you like...just leave the last blooms of the season in place to produce seed for songbirds to eat. Trim the dried foliage back in early spring for a fresh start to the growing season.
