Growing in Southern California
- Light: Full sun to light shade.
- Water and soil: Provide deep watering during establishment. Use soil that drains well and irrigate sparingly once established, allowing the soil to dry between waterings.
- Wildlife: Flowers offer nectar to visiting bees and hummingbirds. Dense branches provide cover.
- Care and uses: Use on a dry slope, as a specimen or in a native border with room for natural growth. Prune lightly in dry weather to remove dead or crossing branches.
