How to Grow and Care for Scarlet pimpernel

Scarlet pimpernel, also known as Red chickweed, Shepherd's clock

Scarlet pimpernel is generally considered an undemanding plant, adaptable to a variety of settings. A key care point for scarlet pimpernel is ensuring it receives ample sunlight to thrive, although it can tolerate partial shade. It's important to provide well-draining soil to prevent root rot, as scarlet pimpernel prefers moderately moist conditions. Regular watering is essential, but allowing the soil to dry slightly between waterings maintains the right moisture balance.
