How To Grow

Full sun is really all that's required, although some of the newer hybrids will even bloom in partial shade. As for water, they don't need much, since they're from hot desert-like habitats originally. Soil? Almost any soil will do, but they prefer fast-draining gritty soil, if you have that available.
