💡 Care Tip: Gently separate the two plants after arrival if they are packaged together, taking care not to damage their roots. Plant them promptly in well-draining soil, water thoroughly, and keep the soil consistently moist while they establish. Provide full sun to partial shade and gradually acclimate the plants to intense outdoor sunlight after shipping. Light pruning as they grow can encourage fuller, bushier plants and support continued flowering.
