Prune in late spring after flowering to maintain shape and encourage bushier growth. Remove spent flower stalks and any dead or damaged stems.
Easily propagated from semi-ripe cuttings taken in summer. Can also be grown from seed sown in spring, though cultivars may not come true.
Repot container-grown plants every 2-3 years in spring, or when root-bound. Use a well-draining potting mix.
