have to be within a week or so of flowering here. Been hammered with heavy rain at times for the past few weeks.
But plant is hardy, about 5ft now, has excellent drainage, obviously planted directly in the ground. Continuing to prune out the small inward pointing branches where "fluff-nothings" will form. Still trying to decide whether to use neuts during flowering, so far none used,composted manure only.
All the best.
