Cultural care

Plant in any soil that is moist but well draining. Medium water requirements once established but would be beneficial to give occasional deep soaking during extended periods of heat.
Apply a slow release fertiliser during autumn. Trim spent flowering stems to encourage further flushes.
Prune by up to half original size after main flowering and apply a slow release fertiliser for optimum results.
