| Frequently and abundantly, better daily in Summer. |
| For garden and pots. |
| In the shade outdoors. In the light indoors. High temperatures, between 20 and 26ºC |
| From seeds at the beginning of spring or cuttings in Autumn. It is necessary to pinch it from time to time to encourage growing. Once the plant has produced the inflorescence, it looses gracefulness (better to plant new cuttings.) |
