Absolutely. Its compact size and preference for well-drained soil make it an excellent candidate for pots and containers. Ensure your container has adequate drainage holes to keep the roots healthy.

It is a tender perennial, meaning it will only survive year-round outdoors in zones 9 and 10. In cooler climates, it is typically grown as an annual or brought indoors during the winter.

It performs best in full sun, though it appreciates a bit of afternoon shade in particularly hot climates. Providing this balance helps protect the foliage from scorching while ensuring consistent blooms.

This variety is considered deer resistant. While no plant is entirely deer-proof, the strong fragrance of the leaves typically deters them from grazing.

This plant is heat and drought tolerant, so it requires relatively low water once established. Allow the soil to dry out slightly between waterings to avoid waterlogging the roots.
