  • Pollinator Magnet: Attracts bees, butterflies, and hummingbirds, supporting a healthy ecosystem.
  • Long Bloom Season: Blooms from mid to late summer, providing weeks of color.
  • Highly Mildew-Resistant: Strong resistance to powdery mildew keeps foliage looking healthy.

Care Tips:

  • Plant in well-drained soil with full sun to partial shade for best flowering.
  • Water regularly until established, then as needed during dry periods.
  • Deadhead spent blooms to encourage continuous flowering.
  • Cut back in late fall or early spring to promote fresh, vigorous growth.
