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 very lean, loose, well-drained soils; does not tolerate soggy, poorly-drained soil. Water regularly during first growing season to establish root system. Once established, reduce frequency; tolerates moderate drought. Remove old, faded foliage before new leaves emerge.
