Care

Planting & Growing
Easy to grow in average, well-drained soils. Best with full sun in humid climates and afternoon shade in extremely hot climates. Water deeply, regularly during first growing season to establish an extensive root system; reduce frequency once established. Feed before new growth begins in spring. Prune regularly to maintain shape as a topiary.
