Maintenance:

To keep your Silene uniflora 'Maritima' thriving and looking its best, follow these simple maintenance tips:

• Sunlight: Plant 'Maritima' in a location that receives full sun to partial shade. It prefers bright sunlight but can tolerate some shade.
• Watering: 'Maritima' is drought-tolerant once established but appreciates regular watering during the first growing season. Water deeply and then allow the soil to dry out between waterings. Avoid overwatering, as excessive moisture can lead to root rot.
• Soil: 'Maritima' prefers well-draining soil. It can adapt to sandy or rocky soil types common in coastal areas. Ensure good drainage to prevent waterlogging.
• Fertilization: 'Maritima' generally does not require much fertilization. A light application of balanced slow-release fertilizer in spring can promote healthy growth.
• Pruning: Deadhead spent flowers regularly to encourage continuous blooming. Trimming back the stems after flowering can help maintain a tidy appearance.
• Winter Care: 'Maritima' is generally hardy. In colder regions, a layer of mulch around the base of the plant can help protect the roots from extreme temperatures.
