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
Easily grown in average to lean, fast-draining soils. Avoid wet, poorly drained soils. Water deeply, regularly during the first growing season to establish an extensive root system; once established, reduce frequency. Fertilize in early spring and prune to within several inches above the ground to promote dense growth and heavy bloom.
