Find a spot that's nice and warm with as much direct sun as possible. Dig in some nice compost, plant not too deeply, and keep well watered. If you don't have a spot in the garden, they grow very well in a decent-sized container on a sunny terrace or wherever. Watering is even more important in containers.
yes important to not plant too deeply as they can rot at the base. Give them plenty room as they can make big plants
Thank you both for your help
