Planting & care
Help it thrive
Planting guide
Plant in autumn or early spring in a sheltered, sunny position with well-drained soil. Avoid cold, exposed sites. Provide strong support and shade the roots with mulch or low-growing plants.
Care tips
Protect from frost in colder regions. Water during prolonged dry spells and feed after flowering with a balanced fertiliser. Prune lightly to maintain shape and encourage new growth.
Winter care
Needs protection from harsh winds and severe frost. In colder areas, grow in a container that can be moved to shelter. Prune after flowering to shape and control size.
