Avoid over-fertilizing, as this can lead to excessive foliage growth at the expense of flowers. Organic compost or well-rotted manure can also be used to enrich the soil.

  • Climate requirements: This variety thrives in full sun to partial shade and prefers well-drained soil. It is tolerant of a range of soil types but performs best in slightly alkaline conditions.
