Flowering
From Late Spring TO Early Summer
Terminal clusters of flowers appear from late Spring to early Summer
Planting
From Early Spring TO Mid Spring
Plant in full sun in free-draining soil. This plant will tolerate slightly acid soil, but prefers alkaline soil, as it originates from sunny limestone mountainsides in Europe and West Asia,
Propagating by cuttings
From Late Spring TO Early Summer
Take softwood cuttings from new growth early in the day in Spring or early Summer. Cut, neatly, a 4" approx. piece of a non-flowering shoot, pinch out the tip, and cut off the bottom leaves. Dip the bottom of the cutting in hormone rooting powder, and carefully place in a pot of cutting compost with the leaves just above the level of the compost. Water, label, cover with a polythene bag, and place in a warm, bright place, out of direct sunlight. Take the polythene bag off periodically for a while for ventilation (at least twice a week)
