What size is your plant? You can grow it in shade for a year or two untill it is quite large, using a medium ammount of fertiliser, then harden it in winter morning sun, gradually increasing it through spring and summer for full colour and large size. It will probably stay compact if it is grown hard from an early age. I use that recipe for alot of the colourful neos as most really only need light for the last warm season before maturity, to acheive great colour.
Aren't broms alot of fun?
