To help this plant settle in and thrive, we recommend these standard planting practices: Plant in average, well-draining soil, ensuring the site offers full sun to maximize the intensity of the foliage color and the development of the characteristic smoke plumes. While this genus is notably drought-tolerant once established, provide regular water during the first growing season to encourage a deep, healthy root system. Prune in late winter or early spring to remove dead wood, or cut back severely if you prefer to promote more vibrant, larger foliage over flower production. Apply a layer of organic mulch around the root zone to conserve moisture and suppress weeds, taking care to keep the mulch away from the crown to prevent stem rot.
