It can tolerate full sun but prefers a place with some shading. It could do better in full shade. Its soil requirements are also similar to its sun requirements in that it can handle different soil conditions. Optimally, it prefers slightly acidic and moist soil but can survive in dry, highly acidic soils. It does not, however, do well in soil where drainage could be better.
