Acidic, sandy, or peat-free potting mix with excellent drainage; avoid high phosphorus fertilizers.
Water deeply but allow soil to dry completely between waterings. Reduce watering in winter dormancy. High risk of root rot if overwatered.
Full sun required for optimal color; indoors require bright south-facing window to prevent legginess.
Low nutrient requirements. Apply diluted, low-phosphorus fertilizer once a month during growing season (Spring-Summer).
Remove spent flowers and dead foliage to maintain shape and prevent fungal issues.
