Care:
Maintaining proper hydration is crucial for the optimal health and growth of Stokesia laevis. While the plant can withstand drought conditions once mature, it flourishes when given consistent moisture during the growing season. Ensure your plant's best growth by providing it with necessary hydration. It is advised to deeply water the plant when the soil feels dry to promote health and vitality, allowing it to thrive in its environment. Regularly monitor the soil and water as needed to maintain optimal growth and beauty.
Applying an organic mulch around the roots of 'Peachie's Pick' is highly beneficial for the plant's overall health. This technique helps maintain soil moisture, suppress weeds, regulate temperature, and enhance soil quality and fertility. For best results, aim for a mulch depth of 2-3 inches, being careful to keep it away from the base of the plant's crown.
Instructions for Pruning: To promote longer growth and blooming, it is recommended to regularly remove old and spent flowers (Dead heading) from the plants. A gentle trimming in the beginning of spring can also aid in maintaining a tight, healthy shape and encouraging fresh growth. Additionally, it is beneficial to cut back any winter-damaged or dead leaves to give the plant a rejuvenated appearance.
