Water to establish, then sparingly — hates wet feet.
温度

Many cultivars hardy to USDA ~5 with mulch protection.
湿度

詳しいお手入れ方法
Site
Choose the sunniest, driest spot. Raised beds help in wet UK/Pacific Northwest winters.
Watering
Overwatering is the main killer. Let soil dry between drinks.
Pruning
Shear spent spikes after bloom. Never cut into old woody stems with no green growth.
Winter
Avoid heavy wet mulch against crowns. In cold zones, protect from ice and windburn.
