Planting & Care
1. Planting: Plant or repot within 4 weeks of arrival. Choose a location with plenty of sunlight and well-drained soil to ensure healthy growth. You may wish to amend the soil with organic matter to improve drainage.
2. Watering: This plant is drought-tolerant once established but prefers regular watering during dry spells. Water deeply and allow the soil to dry out between sessions to promote robust root growth.
3. Pruning: To maintain a tidy appearance, trim back any overgrown areas as necessary. This will also encourage fuller growth and help the plant spread effectively across the space.
4. Fertilizing: Use a balanced, slow-release fertilizer in early spring to provide essential nutrients. This will help your plant flourish throughout the growing season while minimizing the need for upkeep.
