✂️ Care
Very easy to grow and low-maintenance. Cut back stems to the ground in early spring before new growth emerges to encourage dense foliage and vibrant variegation.
Apply a light mulch at the base to improve drainage and gradually enrich the soil. Light fertilization in spring supports vigorous growth, especially in poor soils.
