Tropical Lightning™ Rose should only be grown in full sunlight. It does best in average to evenly moist conditions, but will not tolerate standing water. It is not particular as to soil type or pH. It is highly tolerant of urban pollution and will even thrive in inner city environments. Grows easily in average to enriched, evenly moist, well-drained soils. Water deeply, regularly in first growing season to establish root system; once established, reduce frequency. Avoid overhead watering. Feed regularly during growing season. Prune in early spring to promote vigorous new growth. Provide trellis or arbor support. Note that when grown in a container, it may not perform exactly as indicated on the tag - this is to be expected. Also note that when growing plants in outdoor containers and baskets, they may require more frequent waterings than they would in the yard or garden. Be aware that in our climate, most plants cannot be expected to survive the winter if left in containers outdoors, and this plant is no exception. NOTE: Some flowers and plants may be harmful or poisonous to people or pets if touched or ingested. If you require more information before placing an order, please let us know in advance. |
