To help this plant settle in and thrive, we recommend these standard planting practices: Plant in full sun with well-draining soil and a slightly alkaline pH. Water regularly, but avoid overwatering, which can lead to root rot. Mulch around the base to retain moisture and suppress weeds. Fertilize lightly in the spring with a balanced, slow-release fertilizer.
