How to Grow: For optimal results, grow in a sunny or semi-shaded position. In frost-prone areas, planting near a warm wall or in the shelter of other shrubs is advisable. Water regularly until fully established, and apply a mulch of well-rotted manure or compost in spring. Prior to planting, incorporate well-rotted manure or garden compost into the soil. Occasional attention is required; remove any damaged stems and lightly trim those that spoil the plant's shape in summer after flowering. When grown as a hedge, trim up to three times a year, from late spring to mid-August.
