For the best results, position your plant in a spot with full sun and provide regular watering, particularly during warmer months.

Planting:
For those purchasing in early spring, wait until early June to plant, allowing the roots time to establish. Ensure the first inch of branches is just below soil level, and dig a hole spacious enough to accommodate the root ball without teasing out the roots, which can lead to damage.

With its continuous flowering and delightful fragrance, Mrs. Oakley Fisher is an exquisite addition to any garden, bringing beauty, elegance, and a touch of wildlife friendliness that every gardener can appreciate.
