A note from PlantMom

Fragrant heliotrope has strong disease resistance and is generally unlikely to develop illnesses. Care-wise, this plant is fairly low-maintenance. When grown outdoors it needs minimal watering, and larger specimens typically do not require pruning. Smaller plants, however, should be pruned after they finish blooming. Fragrant heliotrope is appropriate for anyone with outdoor space, such as a garden or a deck, and does not require extensive care experience.
