Growing Guide
Position
Grow in full sun or partial shade in a sheltered position. Standard shrubs are equally suitable for planting in borders or growing in containers where their shape can be appreciated.
Soil
Plant in well-drained, fertile soil. When growing in containers, use a good-quality compost and ensure the pot has adequate drainage.
Watering
Keep well watered during the establishment period. Container-grown plants will require more frequent watering during warm weather.
