Watering Notes We treat these plants as annuals to complement annual and perennial plantings. Even though these plants will survive on less water, we want them to grow quickly and regular watering can boost the foliage growth.
Fertilize Notes Treat monthly with a high phosphorus fertilizer like 10-20-20 or a soluble all purpose fertilizer.
