Use as the centerpiece of large container designs or incorporate into mixed borders in the landscape. Good for hedging. Little needed. Prune as needed to shape in early spring. Apply a controlled release fertilizer for shrubs in spring. Supplemental liquid fertilizer may be needed in mid-summer. Note that when grown in a container, it may not perform exactly as indicated on the tag - this is to be expected. Also note that when growing plants in outdoor containers and baskets, they may require more frequent waterings than they would in the yard or garden. Be aware that in our climate, most plants cannot be expected to survive the winter if left in containers outdoors, and this plant is no exception. NOTE: Some flowers and plants may be harmful or poisonous to people or pets if touched or ingested. If you require more information before placing an order, please let us know in advance. |
