Ruliya (Good Morning)

Description

An improved dwarf variety that continues to bloom summer-long, without deadheading! Large lavender-blue flowers are backed by low, spreading mounds narrow, dark green foliage. This tough, heat-loving perennial is disease, insect and deer resistant. Perfect for dry, neglected spots in cooler summer regions, and thrives with regular garden water in hotter regions. Evergreen in frost-free areas.

Care

Follow a regular watering schedule during the first growing season to establish a deep, extensive root system. Established plants tolerate drought. Best with regular feeding of high phosphorus fertilizer. In frost-free areas, shear old foliage in spring; re-sprouts from the ground in colder winter areas. May survive with winter protection in USDA zone 7.
