How to plant & care for Bidens
Bidens prefers to be watered a couple times a week to avoid the soil getting dry. You want to be sure to water before any wilting occurs.
Bidens will thrive in both a sunny or partial shady location. Your plant will get the most blooms if placed in a sunny spot!
Pruning isn't necessary but you can always pinch the plant back to your desired size.
Take a few cuttings from your existing Bidens plant and place the bottom part of the stem into soil that is mixed heavily with compost. Roots should establish rather quickly for these beauties!
Fertilize with a timed-release fertilizer when planting.
