About this plant
Variegated leaves that are coloured green but with irregular variegation on their outer portions. They start off coloured a good light yellow, fading to creamy hues with age. This is summer flowering with good-sized attractive dome-shaped heads of creamy white fragrant flowers in the lacecap formation. (This means a network of stems supports four-petalled large infertile flowers scattered upon its surface, the effect being somewhat lace-like). A useful shrub to grow against a wall in full or part-shade where the variegation may be especially valued.

Spring
Spring-Autumn · Outdoors
Water to keep the soil moist
For best results, this plant needs soil that is always moist. Water deeply and regularly as soon as soil appears dry. Even for established plants in the ground, a dry week can cause problems with some soils. Check plants in pots more often, especially in hot weather. Or install an automatic irrigation system which will do the hard work for you, even when you are away on holiday.
Without regular watering some plants never fully regain their beauty.
Summer
Summer - early · Outdoors
Apply slow release fertiliser
Apply a slow release fertiliser which is spread around the root area of the plants soon after they have come into growth. (Or apply a liquid feed at regular intervals throughout the growing season.)
This is a simple way to provide a nutrient boost as a single annual procedure.
Summer · Planting
Prune after flowering
Remove any dead or damaged branches, or any growth that looks very untidy. Trim the plant back if necessary to keep it within bounds.
