Plant Care Tips

• Water: Water regularly after planting until established. Once established, water deeply but only during extended dry periods.
• Soil: Prefers well-drained, acidic to sandy soil. Avoid heavy clay soils and waterlogged conditions.
• Feeding: Apply a low-phosphorus fertiliser formulated for fynbos or indigenous plants during the growing season if required.
• Pruning: Lightly prune after flowering to maintain a compact, bushy shape and encourage healthy new growth.
• Growing Conditions: Plant in a sunny position with good air circulation and excellent drainage for optimal performance.
