Cultural care

Prefers to be planted in a full sun position in a well drained soil. Dry tolerant once established, and requires only an occasional deep soaking during extended periods of drought. Feed in spring with a slow release fertiliser for best results. If the plant becomes untidy at any stage, at the end of winter prune back to the base, where new growth will shoot from the ground at the beginning of spring. This is recommended every few years at least for optimum performance.
