Cultural care

Water requirements are low. Once established, very dry tolerant.  Will tolerate long periods of drought, but will flourish with only an occasional long soak during extended periods of heat.
Tolerates most soil types, but thrives in well drained soil containing plenty of compost. 
Apply a slow release fertiliser in spring.
Pruning generally not required.
