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 well-drained, enriched soils with neutral to slightly acidic pH. Water deeply and regularly during the first growing season to establish an extensive root system; reduce frequency once established. Apply a general fertilizer before new growth begins in spring. For a formal appearance, prune annually after flowering.I'm really pleased with this plant because it is thriving after repotting it a week after I picked it up from the store. Thank you,
