It grows best outdoors but you can also grow it inside as long as it gets plenty of direct sunlight. It doesn’t like frosts so make sure that you plant it in spring when there is less chance of getting caught out. If you let it wilt due to a lack of water then it will recover it you give it a bit of TLC and plenty of water.

Yep direct sunlight really helps but keep an eye on it so it doesn't dry out
