Borisii avens is supplied as an established seedling, which you can plant in its permanent location immediately after unpacking. This undemanding perennial will thrive best in a sunny spot or in light partial shade. Although it can handle direct midday sun, in such a case it is necessary to ensure that the soil never completely dries out. The ideal soil should be loamy, humous, and above all well-drained. Avens does not tolerate waterlogging, which could lead to root rot in winter, but at the same time, it requires soil that can retain adequate moisture.
When planting, follow the recommended spacing of 30 cm (approximately 9–12 plants per square meter), so the plants have enough space for their basal rosette of leaves and at the same time create a nice closed stand. Plant the seedling as deep as it grew in the container, and water it thoroughly after planting. During the growing season, especially on hot summer days, treat the plant to regular watering. It is advisable to continuously remove the faded stems with their cup-shaped orange flowers. This will not only encourage the formation of new buds but also keep the plant in good condition and extend the blooming period, which lasts from May to July.
A great advantage of this cultivar is its absolute resistance to diseases and pests, so you don't have to worry about the need for chemical protection. Avens is also fully frost-hardy down to -28 °C (zone 5a) and does not require any special protection for the winter. Its fresh green leaves often persist even under the snow and create an interesting winter effect. Keep in mind, however, that it is a short-lived perennial. This means that the plant will last in full vigor on the site for several years (usually 3–4 years), after which it may begin to age. To maintain the vitality of the stand, it is advisable to divide and transplant older tufts in the spring or autumn.
If you don't have a garden, Borisii avens is also a great choice for growing in containers. For one plant, choose a pot with a diameter of at least 20–25 cm with a drainage hole. Place a layer of drainage (gravel or expanded clay) at the bottom of the container so the roots do not stand in water. In containers, the substrate dries out faster than in the open ground, so check the moisture more often, even daily in the summer. Thanks to its compact height of 30–50 cm, it will not tumble over in the window box and will create a beautiful colorful centerpiece for the balcony or terrace.
