Choose partial shade and moist, well-drained soil supplemented with organic matter; plants need more water in brighter sites. The species blooms from spring through fall and is used in containers, hanging baskets, borders, and mass plantings.

Check container-grown plants regularly, especially during hot, windy weather, and plant outdoors about two weeks after the average last spring frost.
