Sun and dry soil gets the best flowers. They prefer cooler temps, but, not cold (55-80*) year round for best results.

They are best as a container plant anywhere, pot them up slowly. They flower best when pot bound. Use Osmocote (or a generic) for best results.

I do not care to work on them, they have thorns. In ground plants have 2" thorns and carry something on them that adds to pain when stuck.
