Growing Hollyhill Lilliput
Plant in full sun and stake early, as stems reach four feet and benefit from support once growth fills out. Pinch at the fourth set of leaves to encourage branching and a steady supply of blooms through summer. Water at the base rather than overhead to keep foliage dry and reduce mildew risk late in the season.
- Spacing
- Space roughly 2–3 ft apart
- Staking
- Stake early — stems carry heavy blooms and lean in wind
