Care Instructions for Penstemon Polaris Rose:
Ideal Planting Location: Plant in full sun or partial shade with well-drained soil. Penstemons thrive in sunny borders, raised beds, and containers.
Planting Steps: Remove the plant from its 9cm pot and plant at the same depth as in the container. Space plants around 30-40cm apart to allow for healthy growth and airflow.
Watering Tips: Water thoroughly after planting to help establish roots. Keep the soil moist but not waterlogged, especially during dry periods.
Feeding Schedule: Apply a balanced fertilizer in spring to promote healthy growth and support abundant flowering throughout the season.
Deadheading and Pruning: Regularly deadhead spent flowers to encourage further blooming and prolong the flowering season. Cut back the plant in late autumn after flowering to keep it neat and prepare for winter.
Winter Care: Penstemon Polaris Rose is hardy but may benefit from a layer of mulch around the base during harsh winters to protect the roots.
