1. Planting: Plant or repot within 4 weeks of arrival. Choose a spot with partial shade to full shade and well-draining soil. Dig a hole at least twice the size of the root ball and place the plant at the same depth it was growing in its container. Fill in the hole gently, ensuring there are no air pockets.

2. Watering: Keep the soil consistently moist but not soggy during the growing season. Water well after planting, then provide regular waterings, especially during dry spells. Mulching helps retain moisture and control weeds.

3. Pruning: Prune spent flowers to encourage further blooming and maintain an attractive appearance. In late fall, cut back the foliage to the ground to prepare for new growth in spring.

4. Fertilizing: Apply a balanced, slow-release fertilizer in early spring to promote healthy growth. Follow the label instructions for the appropriate dosage, as over-fertilizing can harm the plant.
