Fertilizing

Balanced perennial feed every four weeks from spring through summer

Pruning

Propagation

Propagate by semi-ripe cuttings in late spring to early summer; bottom heat may be required for rooting

Growing

Grow in loam-based potting compost, in full light with shade from hot sun. Water moderately in the growing season, preferably with rainwater as plants dislike tapwater. Apply a balanced liquid feed monthly in the growing season; water sparingly in winter. Top dress or pot on in spring
