sisyrinchium

Sisyrinchium 'Devon Skies', or 'Devon Skies Blue-Eyed Grass', should be watered every 7 to 10 days, depending on the weather conditions and soil. During warmer months or areas with high temperatures, it is best to water more frequently, but slightly less during cooler times. When watering, provide a deep soaking of your Sisyrinchium with enough water to completely saturate the soil. It is best to water in the morning or early afternoon to allow the foliage and flowers to dry off until the next watering. It is important to ensure the soil stays consistently moist but not soggy. Monitor the soil moisture to make sure your Sisyrinchium 'Devon Skies' is getting the right amount of moisture.

Sisyrinchium 'Devon Skies' prefers to receive full sun throughout the day for optimal growth. For best results, it should receive 6 to 8 hours of direct sunlight exposure each day during the spring and summer months. During the cooler months, 2 to 3 hours of direct sun should be provided. Prolonged periods without sun can cause the plant to become leggy and sparse.

Sisyrinchium 'Devon Skies' is a perennial plant that benefits from occasional pruning to keep it in shape and promote blooms. It should be pruned in the late winter to early spring, when the active growth cycle has started. Start by removing any damaged or dead stems and trimming off any overgrown foliage. Then, carefully prune back about a third of the foliage to maintain the desired shape and encourage new growth. This will also help to increase flowering. Finally, pinch off any newly emerging flower buds to encourage more blooms throughout the season.
