Growing Tips: Tolerates heat and drought once established. Keep watered after pruning to minimize browning; this is also an effective strategy to minimize winter damage to foliage in cold areas.
Soil: Adaptable in terms of pH; best growth is in moderately moist, cool, fertile soils.
Pruning: Does not strictly require pruning, though it does tolerate it well. Prune in spring before new growth begins.
