Lots. Full sun is best, that means full sun across and including the noon hour. A little afternoon shade won't hurt, but for the most part, keep those rays beaming!

Thank you so much! I have them under trees!:mad:

I love the way they smell and want them to be huge bushes.

How much water should you give them? I have one in a pot that made ot through the winter and came back in the same pot. I transplanted it into a bigger one and I am wondering if I can take it in for the winter as things just do not seem to come back in the spring as we have really crappy soil . Can I take it in this fall and how much water should it get now? It is outside in the full sun and seems to be doing well. Thanks.

They don't like standing water. Evenly moist with sharp drainage is best. Water standing near their roots will cause them to rot.
