Climate/Position: Full sun or partial shade

Height/Spread: Up to 2 metres x 2 metres

Soil Requirements: Any free draining soil.

Pruning: Limited but careful pruning may be required to maintain the layered effect. Removing any crossing branches and ensuring an appropriate shape is maintained. Prune after flowering in late spring.
