Growth & mature size
Growth & mature size
Expect around 20–40 cm of new growth per year after establishment in good conditions. At maturity it typically reaches 2–4 m in height and 2–3 m in width. Allow room for an upright, multi-stemmed shrub; soil, water, exposure and pruning all influence its final outline.
How to care
How to care
Choose a sunny, sheltered spot with well-drained soil and plenty of summer warmth. Water deeply through the first growing seasons and during prolonged dry spells later on. Apply mature compost or a balanced slow-release fertiliser once in spring; protect the roots of young plants in winter. After the main frost risk has passed, shorten weak or damaged shoots to encourage flowering on new growth.
