Easy to grow, super resilient, beautiful colour. Grow like crazy! Make sure to deadhead often
As the City of North Vancouver began the summer with imposed Stage 2 Water Restrictions it was not possible to obtain a Nematodes watering permit for the necessary 2 week July watering window. I purchased 2 rain barrels from the City, but the task of watering my lawn by hand with rain water was back breaking. So although I applied the purchased nematodes, watered as much as I could, and it did rain for several days at the end of July, it is likely that there was not enough moisture in the ground to allow the nematodes to reach the chafer beetle larva and be effective. I have successfully treated my lawn for many years, so we will see this autumn whether it was a useless exercise and waste of money and my lawn is reinfected. Likely another example of Metro Vancouver's inept management.
