Key Characteristics
Color: Features true yellow flowers, sometimes with dark yellow centers.
Habit: This variety has a mounding and spreading habit, offering more height than the classic Wave series but a slightly more controlled spread. It can spread up to 3 feet or more.
Size: Plants typically reach 6-12 inches (15-30 cm) tall and can spread 30-40 inches (75-100 cm) wide.
Sunlight: Thrives in full sun, requiring at least 6-8 hours of direct sunlight daily for optimal performance and continuous blooming.
Tolerance: The plant is heat-tolerant and can handle cooler conditions well.
Attracts: The blooms attract pollinators such as butterflies, bees, and hummingbirds.
Care and Maintenance
Watering: Keep the soil consistently moist but avoid overwatering, as it can lead to root rot. The soil should never dry out completely, especially in containers.
Soil: Prefers moist, well-drained soil. Amending garden soil with compost before planting is recommended.
Fertilizing: The plant is a heavy feeder and benefits from a liquid fertilizer application every 1-2 weeks or a slow-release fertilizer at planting time to maintain continuous blooms.
Grooming: The plant is low-maintenance and generally does not require deadheading (removing spent flowers) as it blooms freely all season. However, an occasional trim of leggy growth can encourage a bushier, fuller appearance.
