How To Grow

Excellent pest and disease resistance

Disease free, but may be affected by gall mites. Gall mites leave raised bumps on the surface of leaves. They don't harm the plant, but look unsightly - you can pick them off by hand or prune out affected parts.

Water when new

Water regularly when newly planted, especially during dry periods. Once the roots have established, it will need very little watering except in prolonged hot and dry periods.

Full sun

For the best flowers and foliage colour, grow in a position where the plant will receive 6-8 hours of sunlight daily.

Moist, well-drained soil

Prefers well drained loam or sandy soils.

No feeding required

No need to feed - but you can give the soil a mutrient boost by applying a layer of mulch each spring. ?v=1613300718
