Planting time

Care
- If watered less frequently but thoroughly and penetratingly, the plant roots are stimulated to penetrate into deeper soil layers. This helps the plant to survive periods of drought. - Excess water must be able to drain away easily and waterlogging should be avoided at all costs. - If the plant is divided every 2-3 years and weak roots and shoots are removed, the reward is better growth and flowering vigour!
