Easily grown in average, well-drained soil. Tolerates mild drought when established; best with regular watering, when the top surface of the soil becomes dry to the touch. Feed monthly during growing season. For dried flowers, cut just-opened flower stems and hang upside down in a dark, well-ventilated space until fully dry.
