The young plants were very small but very green. I hope they will grow again because two years ago, they didn't grow. I am eagerly waiting for spring!

Planting and care

Plant them in a fresh and deep soil, preferably well-drained, in a sunny location. They can withstand heatwaves. These vigorous plants are hungry and will thrive better if you regularly provide them with good fertilizer. Cut back the stems when the flowers have faded to stimulate the next flowering.
