Does it fit your growing space?

The published exposure is Part Sun to Sun, with a mature height of 12 Inches and spread of 20 Inches. Its published width is substantially greater than its height, so budget for lateral spread rather than treating it as a narrow upright accent. Check the light at the actual planting spot, including shade cast by taller plants as they grow.

A spacing sketch for Perfect Storm

Using the upper published mature width of 20 inches, 6 plants would occupy approximately 120 inches of a ten-foot run if their mature canopies just met. This is a scale illustration, not a planting prescription. It reserves the full mature width for each plant; paths, access and the breeder’s planting-distance recommendation may require more room. A mixed border needs space for its other plants as well.

Water, winter conditions and maintenance

The breeder’s water category is Average. Use it to compare this selection with neighboring plants; it is not a fixed watering interval. Check the root-zone moisture, drainage and weather when deciding whether to water. Its listed hardiness range is 5a–8b. Hardiness is a winter-cold reference, not a guarantee of performance in every soil or summer climate.

“Prefers moist, well-drained soil. Adaptable to a variety of conditions. Best habit and flowers in sun…”

This short opening excerpt is from the breeder’s maintenance notes. Read the complete instructions for this exact selection before using fertilizer or changing a pruning routine.

Using Perfect Storm in a landscape

The breeder describes its habit as mounded. Its green foliage is part of its visual role, while the recorded seasonal interest is early summer; mid summer; late spring. Compare the mature outline with the available bed width, sightlines and access around the planting. Repeat a selection for continuity only after checking that the location meets its light and water requirements.
