Essentials for Success

For thriving plants, use EB Stone Potting Soil for containers or EB Stone Planting Mix for garden beds. Pair either with EB Stone Sure Start to encourage strong root development and help reduce transplant shock.

Care

Planting & Growing
Thrives in average to enriched, well-drained soils. Water regularly during first growing season to develop an extensive root system. Once established in landscape reduce frequency; water container plants when soil surface becomes dry. Apply a controlled release fertilizer in spring. Prune spent foliage as new leaves emerge.
