Light and Water
* Light: Full sun (6+ hours daily) enhances foliage color and flowering. Tolerates partial shade but may grow less densely.
* Water: Water sparingly only during extended dry spells. Overwatering risks root rot.
Soil and Fertilizing
* Soil: Requires well-draining, gritty soil (e.g., cactus/succulent mix). Avoid clay or waterlogged soils.
* Fertilizer: None needed; thrives in nutrient-poor conditions.
Temperature and Humidity
* Temperature: Hardy in USDA zones 3-9. Tolerates frost, snow, and temperatures as low as -30°F (-34°C).
* Humidity: Adapts to dry or moderately humid climates; no supplemental humidity required.
Pruning, Propagating, and Repotting
* Pruning: Trim invasive stems to control spread. Deadhead spent blooms to encourage tidier growth.
* Propagating: Divide clumps in spring/fall or replant stem cuttings-roots readily in soil.
* Repotting: Rarely necessary. Refresh container soil every 3-4 years if grown in pots.
Common Problems
* Root rot: Caused by soggy soil. Ensure sharp drainage in pots or garden beds.
* Aphids: Treat with insecticidal soap or neem oil.
* Leggy growth: Due to insufficient sunlight. Relocate to a sunnier spot.
* Fungal issues: Rare in dry conditions; avoid overhead watering.
