Watering:
Ensuring proper hydration is essential for the optimal growth and health of Stokesia laevis. Although this plant can withstand periods of drought once it has matured, it thrives when provided with consistent moisture throughout the growing season. Ensure optimal growth for your plant by providing it with the necessary hydration. It is recommended to water the plant deeply when the soil feels dry to the touch. This will help maintain the plant's health and vitality, allowing it to thrive in its environment. Remember to monitor the soil regularly and provide adequate watering as needed to promote optimal growth and beauty.
Mulching: Spreading an organic mulch around the roots of 'Peachie's Pick' is a great way to keep the soil moist, reduce weed growth, and maintain a consistent temperature. By improving soil structure and fertility, mulching also benefits the plant's general health. Aim for a mulch depth of 2-3 inches, keeping it away from the base of the plant's crown.
Pruning: Removing the spent flowers (Dead heading) from plants keeps them growing and blooming longer. A light trimming in the early spring can also help keep the shape tight and encourage new growth. To make the plant look new and healthy, cut back any winter-damaged or dead leaves.
