Try to plant in a location that enjoys full sun and remember to water moderately. Keep in mind when planting that Imperial Gem is thought of as hardy, so Imperial Gem will tend to go dormant or grow slowly over the winter months. Imperial Gem requires a sandy, loamy and silty soil with a ph of 6.1 - 8.5 - it grows best in weakly acidic soil to weakly alkaline soil.

By our calculations, you should look at sowing Imperial Gem about 1 days after your last frost date.

Ensure that temperatures are mild and all chance of frost has passed before planting out, as Imperial Gem is a hardy plant.
