Planting and care

Plant in full sun in well-drained, slightly acidic soil. Avoid windy spots, which can dry out the fine foliage. Planting in spring is recommended so it takes well before winter.

Water regularly the first season to keep the soil moist but not soggy. Once established, this cultivar tolerates moderate drought. No pruning is needed; let the natural drooping habit develop. Rarely troubled by disease if planted well.
