Planting & Care
1. Planting: Plant your shrub in full sun in a spot where it can either climb or cascade. Plant in a hole twice as wide, but just as deep as the root ball. Water thoroughly after planting to settle the roots.
2. Watering: Water deeply after planting. Allow the soil to dry before watering deeply again. Rainwater is typically sufficient for the Crossandra, especially in humid climates.
3. Fertilizing: Add a slow-release fertilizer at the beginning of the growing season, or add a water-soluble fertilizer every 2 weeks.
4. Pruning: Trim as desired for growth control.
