MAINTENANCE NEEDS: Medium maintenance. Too much water retention can increase susceptibility to fungal diseases, including root rot, black mold, blight, canker, anthracnose, and leaf spots.

If desired, remove all but one bud from each cluster to increase the size of the flower. Prune immediately after flowering.
