Prefers a full sun position for best colour, but will tolerate partial shade. Suitable for most soil types as long as they’re well drained. Easy to grow and suitable for coastal planting. Will not tolerate severe frost or poor drainage. Benefits from a regular trim to encourage lush new growth and compact habit. Prune to desired shape. An annual dressing of slow release fertiliser will ensure colour intensity.
