Its compact form works well in tabletop displays and bright indoor locations. ## Growing Conditions The grower profile specifies sun exposure and a mounded habit. Use a free-draining mix and keep the root zone evenly moist while the plant is flowering. ## Maintenance Remove fading flower clusters and yellowing leaves. Check containers regularly so the mix does not dry completely, and keep flowering plants away from prolonged heat.
