Cultivation details
A very easily grown plant, succeeding in ordinary garden soil[1], though it prefers a reasonably well-drained and moderately fertile soil in a sunny position[200]. This species is considered to be no more than a form of M. verticillata by some botanists[50]. Plants seem to be immune to the predations of rabbits[233]. Prone to infestation by rust fungus[200].
