Planting
Choose acidic, consistently moist soil in sun or partial shade; flowering is strongest in sun. Provide a trellis or fence, or let the stems trail as ground cover.
Care
Mulch the base to keep the roots cool and moist. Maintain moisture through dry weather, and allow for stems that usually die back to ground level in winter.
Before planting: Toxic if eaten and may irritate skin; wear gloves and keep away from children and pets likely to chew plants.
