This is a plant that doesn't like wet soils, although it will thrive with consistently moist soil.� �It is best suited to be planted in containers where good drainage is ensured. This plant may look rather finicky, but it is tougher than it looks.� Once it is established you may be surprised by how vigorous it is.� It can be fed the same as your other annuals and while it may seem like a shade plant, it is actually quite sun tolerant.
