Grow in moist, humus-rich loam or clay soil in full sun to partial shade. Keep the soil consistently moist; it tolerates short periods of waterlogging. Apply a balanced liquid fertilizer monthly during the growing season. In frost-prone areas, grow as an annual or overwinter in a frost-free greenhouse. Pinch back young plants to encourage bushiness.
