Position - full sun to partial shade in covered areas to control watering. Suitable for gardens in well-drained exposed positions in moderate climates.
Watering - should be watered well but should dry out soon after watering; Plants will survive without water for long periods and require periods of dryness over winter months to encourage flowering.
