Hardy and Low Maintenance: Verbascum Honey Dijon is a tough and resilient perennial that requires minimal care, making it perfect for both beginner and experienced gardeners.
Care Instructions for Verbascum Honey Dijon:
Ideal Planting Location: Plant in full sun with well-drained soil. Verbascum thrives in sunny spots and is ideal for borders, wildflower gardens, or cottage-style plantings.
Planting Steps: Remove the plant from its 9cm pot and plant at the same depth as in the container. Space plants about 30-40cm apart to allow for healthy growth and airflow.
Watering Tips: Water thoroughly after planting to help establish strong roots. Once established, Verbascum is drought-tolerant and only requires minimal watering during dry periods.
Feeding Schedule: Apply a balanced fertilizer in spring to encourage healthy growth and abundant blooms throughout the season.
Deadheading and Pruning: Regularly deadhead spent flower spikes to promote further blooming and maintain a tidy appearance. Cut back the plant after flowering to encourage fresh growth for the next season.
Winter Care: Verbascum Honey Dijon is fully hardy and requires no special winter care, but adding a layer of mulch around the base in late autumn can help protect the roots during colder months.
