Watering

Fertilizing

Balanced perennial feed every four weeks from spring through summer

Pruning

Routine pruning is unnecessary; shorten overlong shoots to fit the available space. For last-year flowering growth, prune after flowering; for current-year flowering growth, prune in late winter or spring. This guidance is for established plants.

Propagation

Propagate by seed, by semi-hardwood cuttings in summer, or by layering in spring or autumn

Growing

Grow under glass in a greenhouse border or large container, in loam-based potting compost, in full light with shade from hot sun. In frost free areas, grow outdoors in moderately fertile, moist but well-drained soil in full sun or partial shade, with shelter from cold, drying winds
