How To Grow

Excellent pest and disease resistance

Generally disease free, occasionally affected by leaf hoppers

Water well

Keep the soil consistently moist rather than allowing it to dry out. During dry spells, water well, once or twice a week.

Full sun to partial shade

Best grown in a spot with around 6-8 hours of sunlight every day. Partial shade during the hottest parts of the day will help prevent the plant bolting.

Any fertile, well-draining soil

Thrives in any well-drained soil. If your soil is particularly clay-heavy and/or often becomes waterlogged then you can improve the drainage by adding in plenty of organic matter such as garden compost as well as some perlite or gravel.
