CULTURAL CARE
Medium watering requirements. Once established in a part shade location it is reasonably dry tolerant requiring only occasional deep watering during extended periods of heat.

If growing in containers or in full sun - extra care should be given to not allow soil to dry out for long periods of time. Adding mulch layer in gardens or water saving crystals in potting mix would be recommended in these situations.

Plant in most soil types that are well draining.

No pruning generally required other than to tidy old flower stems or leaves.

Feed in early spring with a slow release fertiliser for best results.Fertiliser more often if grown in containers (see manufacturers recommendation).
