Amighty dome of exotic foliage, covered in magenta flowers in summer. Everyone loves it but it's not very hardy. Outside and in the ground in central London and built up areas near the sea but otherwise, bung it in a big pot and put it somewhere more or less frost free (it'll take -3°c okay) for the worst of the winter. They grow satisfyingly fast even at fairly low temperatures and will quickly recover from minor damage.

Can reach 3ft x 3ft in a year given space so plenty of light and any reasonably well drained soil. If you have extravagant tendencies, you might consider planting it out in spring anyway. It's worth it.

Tidy by removing the old lower leaves and if it dies, save the seed and grow your own. They're self fertile so you only need one. I shouldn't tell you that should I?
