Planting & Care

Choose a location receiving at least six hours of direct sunlight daily and plant in well-draining soil with adequate moisture retention. Space plants two feet apart to allow for mature growth, or use an 18-inch diameter container for smaller spaces. Water regularly during the first growing season to establish a strong root system; once settled, this variety needs only occasional watering. Apply balanced, slow-release fertilizer in early spring as new leaves appear. Prune lightly in late winter or early spring to maintain a neat appearance and encourage fuller growth.
