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 or or cuttings

Growing

Outdoors, grow in fertile, well-drained soil in full sun; provide support and shelter from frost. May overwinter in mild locations if given a deep, dry mulch. Under glass, grow in loam-based potting compost with added grit, position in full light. When in growth, water freely and apply a balanced liquid feed monthly; water sparingly in winter
