In late fall, cut back the foliage to ground level. The plant is drought-tolerant but performs best with consistent moisture during the growing season. Division is recommended every 3-4 years to maintain plant vigor and prevent overcrowding.

Planting Instructions

Plant Floristan White Blazing Star in spring or early fall. Dig a hole twice the width of the root ball and at the same depth. Place the plant in the hole, ensuring the crown is level with the soil surface. Backfill with soil, firm gently, and water thoroughly. Space plants 12-18 inches apart to allow for mature spread. Apply a layer of mulch around the base to retain moisture and suppress weeds, keeping mulch away from the crown to prevent rot.
