Guía de cuidados

Plant in full sun in well-drained, moisture-retentive soil. Checkerbloom appreciates fertile ground but tolerates leaner soils as well. Water regularly, especially during dry spells. Support tall specimens with stakes in windy locations.

Consejos de poda

Cut back spent flower spikes to encourage a second flush of bloom. The plant dies back to the ground in autumn — remove dead material then. Divide every three to four years to maintain vigour.
