Guía de cuidados

Plant in full sun to partial shade in well-drained soil. Protect from cold east winds in cooler regions. Water regularly in the first year and during dry periods thereafter. Feed in spring with a slow-release fertiliser.

Consejos de poda

Prune after flowering to maintain shape. The shrub responds well to hard pruning and can be used as a topiary subject. Remove any frost damage in early spring.
