COMMENTS:
Performs best in soil high in organic matter. Water
moderately and fertilize monthly but good drainage
is essential, and allow soil to dry out between
waterings. Give container plants light shade. Very
fragrant, so plant in volume to provide a perfumed
garden. Pinch out young plants frequently to
encourage a dense, bushy habit. Slow to develop,
therefore, the largest, healthiest starters are
best. |
