dyzzy,
I grow Achimenes in baskets, pots and in the purple ones in the ground also . The ones in the ground I just cover with leaf mulch. Most dappled sun/shade...sometimes a bit more morning sun depending on the time of year and angle of the sun. They will go dormant in winter if grown outside ( l let all mine go dormant ) just set pots aside in a protected area.
Here's a picture of the purple basket
