Well-draining, fertile loam. Tolerates various soil types but requires excellent drainage to prevent root rot.
Regular watering during establishment and dry spells. Drought tolerant once mature, but avoid waterlogging.
Full sun is essential for abundant flowering; tolerates partial shade but blooms may be reduced.
Apply low-nitrogen fertilizer in early spring to encourage blooms rather than foliage growth.
Critical. Summer pruning (July/Aug) removes new shoots; winter pruning shapes plant and promotes flowering spurs.
These are the insects and pathogens that commonly interact with this plant, including pests, parasites, and organisms typically associated with its care.
