Try to plant in a location that enjoys full sun and remember to water moderately. Keep in mind when planting that Orange icicle is thought of as tender, so it is really important to plant out well after your last frost date. Ideally plant in loamy soil and try to keep the ph of your soil between the range of 5.5 and 7.5 as Orange icicle likes to be in weakly acidic soil to weakly alkaline soil.

Ensure that temperatures are mild and all chance of frost has passed before planting out, as Orange icicle is a tender plant.
