How to keep Erigeron Procumbens.
Pruning
Corpus Christi fleabane benefits from light pruning in early spring, which encourages growth and blooming. To achieve this, remove dead stems and trim any long shoots to maintain the plant's shape. Thinning out dense areas can help improve air circulation, thereby reducing the risk of disease. Regular pruning not only enhances the health of the foliage but also increases the abundance of flowers, making Corpus Christi fleabane more attractive and vigorous.
