Cultural care

Once established, plants are quite dry tolerant, requiring only occasional deep watering during extended periods of heat. Low maintenance and easy to grow, apply a slow-release fertiliser during early spring. No pruning is generally required, although removing spent flower stems will encourage repeat blooming.
