✂️ Care

Extremely easy to grow and very low maintenance. Simply guide the stems onto a support or structure to create a spectacular vertical display.

Regularly remove faded flowers to extend the blooming period and encourage continuous production of new blooms. Light pruning after flowering maintains a balanced and compact shape.

Apply a light mulch at the base to optimize drainage and gradually enrich the soil. Once well established, the plant requires minimal intervention and is very self-sufficient.
