Rue is drought tolerant and dislikes wet roots. Water only in prolonged dry spells and let the soil dry between times.

Once established this plant rarely needs watering. Alerts are worth acting on mainly in a long dry spell or in its first year.

A blue green aromatic herb, once medicinal, now grown for its striking foliage.
