HOW TO PLANT
FIND A LOCATION - Blazing Star will thrive in full sunlight. The location should be well drained.
PLANT IT - One of the most simple plants to plant, simply take a "plug" out of the ground. The hole that you plugged should be as deep as the container is tall. Drop your Blazing Star in the ground and cover back up with dirt.
WATER IT IN - After you plant your new native perennial you will need to water them in. They will need water once week until they start to sprout.
ENJOY - Simplicity turns into beauty. The Blazing Star that you plant will sure to be an eye catcher come the Summer.
