- Pruning: Prune the plant after flowering to remove any dead or damaged wood and to maintain its shape. Do not prune the plant in the Autumn, as this can interfere with next year’s bloom.
- Mulching: Adding a layer of organic mulch around the base of the plant can help to conserve moisture, suppress weeds, and regulate soil temperature.
