  • Maintenance advice : At the end of winter, in March, prune down to 60-80cm from the ground, if wanted. It is also possible to prune after flowering to keep the plant compact and encourage an abundant repeat flowering in autumn. Without any or little pruning, the plant will repeat naturally, lightly but regularly.
