Pussytoes

Small Pussytoes require consistently moist soil in order to thrive. Make sure to water the plants regularly, keeping the top 5 cm (2 inches) of soil moist but not soggy. During the spring and summer months, Small Pussytoes should be watered once or twice per week. During the fall and winter months, the plants should be watered less frequently, as these are their dormant seasons. For best results, consider using a soaker hose or drip irrigation system in order to ensure that the roots receive an even amount of water. Also, avoid watering in the late afternoon or evening, as this can encourage fungal and bacterial diseases.

Small Pussytoes requires between 6 to 8 hours of sunlight per day. This species thrives in open, sunny areas with well-drained soils. It can tolerate partial shade but will produce more foliage in full sun. To ensure good health, it is important to provide the right amount of sunlight each day. During the winter months, when the amount of sunlight decreases, provide more sunlight exposure to Small Pussytoes by moving it to an area with plenty of light during daylight hours.

Small Pussytoes should be lightly pruned just after flowering, which typically occurs in the late spring. Pruning should be restricted to removing faded flower stems and any unwanted foliage and should be done with pruning shears or scissors. It is important to not over-prune the plant as this may reduce flowering for the next growing season.
