Instructions:
Grows easily in average, medium, well-drained soils in full sun to partial shade. They prefer deep, fertile loams, although they will perform well in a wide range of well-drained soils. Tolerates summer heat and humidity well, but deep watering during dry spells will be helpful for keeping the foliage lush and attractive. They will grow well with less than six hours of sun per day, but more sun exposure is preferable, especially in the North. The amount of water they receive has a significant effect on flower quality and quantity.
