Planting Instructions Plant Arctic Fire Maiden Pinks in spring or early fall for best results. Choose a location with well-draining soil and adequate sunlight. Dig a hole twice the width of the root ball and at the same depth. Remove the plant from its container and gently loosen the roots. Place in the hole, ensuring the crown is level with the soil surface. Backfill with soil, water thoroughly, and apply a layer of mulch around the base, keeping it away from the crown to prevent rot. Space plants 12-15 inches apart to allow for mature spread.
