🌱 Care Guide

☀️ Light
Prefers full sun for the best flowering performance. Ideally, provide at least 6 hours of direct sunlight daily.

💧 Water
Water regularly while establishing. Once established, it is relatively drought tolerant. Allow the top layer of soil to dry slightly between watering.

💦 Humidity
Adapts well to average outdoor humidity. Good airflow helps maintain healthy foliage.

🌡️ Temperature
Thrives in warm conditions and tolerates typical Australian garden temperatures. Protect from severe frost and prolonged extreme cold.

🪴 Soil
Prefers fertile, well-draining soil. Avoid heavy, waterlogged soils, as these can cause root problems.

🌿 Fertiliser
Apply a slow-release fertiliser for flowering plants during the growing season. Avoid excessive feeding, which can encourage foliage at the expense of flowers.

✂️ Pruning
Remove spent flower spikes to encourage further flowering. Prune lightly to maintain a compact shape and cut back as needed after the main flowering period.

🐾 Pet Friendly
Generally considered non-toxic to cats and dogs.
