☀️ Care in Perth
Position: Full sun is best for strong flowering and compact growth.
Soil: Well-drained soil is ideal. It tolerates a range of soil types once established.
Watering: Water regularly during the first summer. After establishment, reduce watering, but occasional deep watering during very hot Perth summers will help maintain healthy growth.
Fertiliser: Use a native-plant fertiliser with low phosphorus in spring. Avoid heavy fertilisation.
Pruning: Lightly prune after flowering to maintain a dense shape and encourage branching. Avoid severe pruning into old, leafless wood unless necessary.
