    Maintenance Notes: 

    Deadheading not necessary for continuous bloom. Plants will "bury their dead" (new flowers will quickly cover old flowers) so no deadheading necessary.

    An application of fertilizer or compost on garden beds and regular fertilization of plants in pots will help ensure the best possible performance.

    • Love this little plant. This is the first year I have grown it but it's thriving. Lots of colorful blossoms and also interesting foliage. I planted it in with some million bells and the rabbits have decimated the million bells and haven't touched the Sunbeeni. A plant not interesting to rabbits gets my vote any day!

    • I bought 2 of these last spring and planted them in a new flower bed in full sun. They bloomed all summer long and even into the fall! I watered them as needed, and they were a burst of color in the garden. Would definitely recommend!

    • The ones planted in containers are doing well. The flowers are tiny, not a showy plant. Those planted in flower beds are not doing well. They haven't grown even though I've watered, and fertilized.

    • This is an amazing workhorse of a plant! Blooms Spring-late Summer. Perfect filler for pots. Couldn’t recommend more highly..
