Water this plant regularly, when the top inch or so of soil feels dry. If you establish this pattern over several years, then you can cut back to watering every week or two in dry weather. Use drippers, emitters, or a slow stream of water so that it doesn't run off; allow the water to trickle all the way down through the deepest layers of soil. In a pot slowly water the entire surface until water comes out of the bottom of your pot. Being a winter grower this plant will want extra water, if it gets a dry winter. | |

Both the flowers and seeds of this plant were used by Native Americans as soap. Try it yourself by briskly rub the flowers or seeds together in your hands under a stream of water. You can even dry the seeds and use them later on!
