I used to grow these when I had the space. They went into the heated greenhouse in the winter and out into the garden in the summer. I fed them every fortnight with Phostrogen and they flowered profusely. The sap is an irritant if you have sensitive skin so make sure you wash your hands after handling the plant. The cuttings are easy to take about August -September time. I always cut the dead heads off after flowering.
