Planting and care

If you live in an area with high humidity during winter, you might be worried about rain. To protect against this, it's essential to add a greenhouse cover over the top of the plant. This plant can survive in poor and dry soil, even limestone. It grows best in full sunlight and is perfect for dry rubble in a rockery, a trough, a dry slope, or hot paving.
