Cultural care

Choose a site in full sun in most soil types with good drainage. Dry tolerant once established but should be given the occasional deep watering during extended
periods of heat. During early spring cut back old foliage stems once new growth begins to appear at the crown. Feed at this time with an application of slow release fertiliser for best results.
