How to Care for the Plant
Water
This can be given perhaps every 3 or 4 weeks or so when watering during the growing season. The aim is just to keep the plants healthy and active in their limited volume of soil, not to encourage lush, rapid growth - hence the use of fertilisers at low rate only.
Fertilizer
You can fertilize the plant every spring using a general, all-purpose mixture.
Sunlight
Best grown in full sun to part shade.
