In smaller gardens, it's ideal for potting up and placing on the terrace or balcony, where it's abundance of flowers can be enjoyed over a long period. - Garden care: Cut back the stems to the base of the plant each winter and apply a mulch of well-rotted garden compost around the plant, avoiding the immediate crown.
- Humans: Skin irritant; Pets: Harmful if eaten
