I planted two of the 'siskou pink' variety this May of 2024. One of the plants is real tall and wispy, the other more compact. It's now Sept, and only 1 bloom so far.
I'm wondering if it's normal for them not to bloom much the first season.
Hi Betsy -
We would recommend confirming that your plants are getting enough sun — you certainly should have had more flowers this year! You also may want to try cutting the wispy stems to encourage more growth.
I have "Bantam Pink" Guara, which is 3 years old. I live in zone 6B and my Guara flourishes. I love it's wispy foliage and delicate pink flowers.
