Default Beavercreek Nursery Bin – C6 Yearly Care Instructions- Water regularly during dry spells, especially in the first few years. Apply a layer of mulch in spring to conserve moisture and suppress weeds. Cut back to the ground in late winter or early spring to promote vigorous new growth and flowering.
