It will grow in humid areas but is likely to be short-lived under those conditions. The species appreciates some protection from full sun as the flowers may suffer sunburn and performs best in well drained soils with assured moisture. It will recover from damage from light frost but is not suited to areas where moderate to heavy frost are experienced. Propagation from seed is relatively easy following pre-treatment to break the physical dormancy provided by the impervious seed coat. The seed retains viability for many years.
Cuttings strike well using firm, current season's growth.
