It thrives in USDA hardiness zones 9 to 11, which generally encompass regions with mild winters and warm to hot summers. It prefers full sun and well-drained soil, and it's relatively tolerant of drought once established. In areas where temperatures regularly drop below freezing, it's best to provide some protection or grow it in a container that can be moved indoors during cold weather.
