Planting guide

Plant against a sunny, sheltered wall with a sturdy support. Ensure well-drained soil, and mulch annually to conserve moisture and suppress weeds. Water regularly until established.

Care tips

Feed in spring with a balanced fertiliser. Prune lightly after flowering to shape. Water during dry periods, especially in containers.

Winter care

Mulch around the base to protect roots in colder areas. In frost-prone regions, plant in a sheltered position to avoid leaf damage. Minimal pruning needed—just trim to shape after flowering.
