Indoors, outdoor, or do you rotate by season? I'm way too far north to grow it year round outdoors, but if I could realistically pot it...
I’m also pretty far north. I just rotate it in the pot. It stays in a sunny window in the winter, and tied to a railing on the deck during the rest of the year. It tends to suffer a bit in winter. A few leaves fall off and whatnot. But it blooms every year and fills its trellis nicely. I need to aggressively prune it once a year.
Is there a proper way to prune/remove old material?
I’m sure there is… but I wing it. I just take off whatever is making the plant too bushy. Sometimes I’ve taken off whole vines.
