This is one of my favourite plants. I already have some but they tend to get very leggy, possible because or clay soil, lack of water, or lack of pruning. I’ve spotted baby stick insects on these plants.

I’ve bought several – at tubestock prices you can afford to experiment – and will try in various locations to find somewhere it likes.
