Traditionally regarded as a greenhouse plant such is its growth rate in a single season, it is increasingly commonly being used by parks and gardens in the UK as part of their annual summer bedding programmes. It will in fact survive winters in much of southern England and inner city locations without much difficulty. Grow on hot south facing wall with moist and fertile soil conditions. Alternatively in colder parts, root cuttings and over winter them so you can get off to a fast start the next spring!
