Care Guide

Type: Evergreen Perennial

Sunlight: Full Sun to Semi-Shade. The deepest foliage colour develops when grown in full sun.

Water: Water regularly during establishment. Once established, water moderately, allowing the soil to dry slightly between waterings.

Spacing: Plant 25–35cm apart for a dense, colourful groundcover.

Frost: Frost Sensitive. Frost can damage the foliage, but established plants usually recover with fresh growth once warmer weather returns. Protect plants during severe cold.

Maintenance: Pinch back the growing tips occasionally to maintain a compact shape and encourage dense, bushy growth.
