GROWING INSTRUCTIONS: Can grow in containers (as houseplants or outside) or in the ground. Little pruning is needed once established with strong laterals and open center for sun. Good drainage is the key with regular deep watering, avoid shallow lawn irrigation. Regularly fertilize with higher N levels. Slow release fertilizer granules are better than spikes. Yellow leaves often mean roots are too wet or a lack of fertilizer.
