Planting guide
Plant in a sunny, sheltered location with well-drained soil. Provide strong support and water regularly during the first growing season. Mulch annually and feed in spring.
Care tips
Feed with a general-purpose fertiliser in spring. Prune lightly to shape after flowering. Water well in dry weather and protect from cold winds.
Winter care
Mulch in late autumn to insulate the roots. In cold regions, provide wind protection or grow in containers that can be moved to shelter. Prune lightly after flowering to maintain shape.
