🌿 Growing Instructions (Care Guide)

🌞 Sunlight:
Thrives in full sun but tolerates light shade. More sun encourages compact growth and heavier flowering.

🌱 Soil:
Prefers light, well-drained soil. Excellent for rocky, sandy, or poor soils. Avoid heavy clay or waterlogged conditions.

🌱 Sowing Instructions:

  • Sow indoors in late winter or directly in early spring
  • Lightly press seeds into moist seed-raising mix (do not bury deeply)
  • Germinates in 14–21 days at 18–21°C
  • Space plants 20–30cm apart

💧 Watering:
Water regularly during establishment. Once mature, water only during dry spells.

✂️ Maintenance:

  • Trim lightly after flowering to maintain shape and encourage rebloom
  • Divide clumps every 2–3 years to rejuvenate
  • Avoid overfeeding—too much nitrogen reduces flowering

🌼 Tip:
Perfect for filling gaps in stone walls, edging veggie beds, or pairing with spring bulbs like crocus and dwarf daffodils
