Light. Best in full sun. It also grows in part shade.
Water. Water regularly while it settles in. Once established it is moderately drought tolerant.
Soil and feeding. Plant it in well-drained soil to avoid root rot. It also grows well in a large container or planting box.
Size. Grows to about 6 ft, a sprawling evergreen shrub. With careful pruning it is easy to keep at 3–5 ft.
Pruning. Prune in early summer, after the main bloom season ends.
Good to know. Pink flower clusters appear from December through May, with scattered blooms the rest of the year. The scent is strongest at night, and butterflies visit by day. Grow more from cuttings.
