Planting & Care
To root your cuttings, prepare a well-draining medium such as a mix of potting soil and perlite. Insert the cut end of each stem into the medium, ensuring at least one node is buried. Keep the medium consistently moist but not waterlogged, and maintain high humidity by covering with a plastic bag or dome. Place in bright, indirect light until roots develop.
Once rooted, gradually acclimate the young plants to outdoor conditions. Transplant into a sunny location with well-drained soil, spacing them 3-4 feet apart. Water deeply and regularly during the first growing season to encourage a strong root system. Apply a balanced fertilizer in spring and mulch to conserve moisture and suppress weeds. Prune lightly to shape and remove spent blooms to promote continued flowering.
