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, neutral to slightly alkaline soils. Needs good air circulation. Water deeply, regularly in the first growing season to establish an extensive root system. Once established, reduce frequency; increase frequency again before and during spring bloom period. Fertilize in early spring. Prune after flowering.
