The compact habit of 'Carnaby' makes it well-suited to small gardens and growing in containers. The main flush of its deep pink flowers comes in late spring and early summer, and is often followed by a second show in late summer and early autumn. To prune, remove any dead or weak stems in late winter or early spring and cut remaining stems back to the highest pair of strong-growing buds. To encourage blooms to cover the whole plant, train the stems so that they are evenly spaced on their support. As new growth appears in mid-spring, train this to fill any gaps.
