Container, solitary, ornamental shrub

The plant needs plenty of water. Do not allow the soil to dry out.

- A slow-release fertiliser can be used in spring. This releases the nutrients slowly and continuously so that the plant is evenly supplied over a longer period of time.
- Watering less frequently, but thoroughly and thoroughly, encourages the plant roots to penetrate deeper into the soil. This enables the plant to survive dry periods better.

Container plants can be planted all year round, except when the soil is frozen and in summer heat (over 30°C).
