Prune to shape after flowering. This plant flowers on the previous season's growth. Adaptable to most soils but prefers well drained acidic soil. Fertilize with a controlled release shrub fertilizer in spring. It has extra large flowers that are roughly twice the size of those of 'The Bride'. This is a very showy specimen plant for the spring landscape, and can be incorporated into mixed borders. It can be pruned to keep small or trained into a small tree. 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. |
