How to care
How to care
Plant in ordinary well-drained soil near a sound, suitable wall and water until established. Water deeply through the first growing seasons and during prolonged dry spells later on. Top-dress with mature compost once a year in spring, keeping it clear of the stems. Cut back stems yearly to keep them clear of gutters, roofs, windows and neighbouring plants.
