Planting & care
Help it thrive
Planting guide
Plant in spring or autumn in fertile, well-drained soil. Keep roots cool and shaded, while allowing top growth to reach into sun or light shade. Provide a trellis or obelisk for support and tie in new growth as it develops. Water regularly during dry periods.
Care tips
Prune annually in early spring to promote fresh flowering shoots. Feed during the growing season with a balanced fertiliser. Keep roots shaded and evenly moist, especially in containers.
Winter care
Prune back in late winter or early spring to a strong pair of buds, as it flowers on new growth. Apply mulch around the base to protect roots and conserve moisture. Ensure good drainage to prevent winter wet.
