Guía de cuidados

Place in a sunny, warm and sheltered spot. Keep the soil evenly moist during the growing season. Reduce watering in winter. Feed fortnightly from April to September. Overwinter in a bright location above 5°C. Only flowers after several years once the plant is sufficiently mature.

Consejos de poda

Remove spent flower stalks at the base. Cut away yellowed or damaged leaves. No further pruning is needed. The plant gradually forms a clump that can be divided every few years.
