Planting & Care
1. Planting: Plant or repot within 4 weeks of arrival. Choose a sunny spot with well-drained soil for optimal growth. Dig a hole that is twice as wide as the root ball but no deeper. Place the shrub in the hole, filling in the gaps with soil, and water thoroughly to eliminate air pockets. Ā Spread a layer of mulch three feet around the plant to conserve moisture, insulate roots, and suppress weeds.
2. Watering: Maintain consistent moisture, especially during the first growing season. After establishment, water deeply once a week or more often in hot, dry periods. Always water at the base of the plant and avoid overhead watering, as this promotes disease, especially in humid climates.
3. Pruning: In winter, prune for structure by removing any crossing, dead, or diseased canes. Ā The plant can be cut back by a third during yearly pruning. Ā During the growing season, deadhead by cutting the flower at the base where it joins the stem or cut just above a set of five leaflets.
4. Fertilizing: Apply a balanced, slow-release fertilizer in early spring to support growth and blooming. Another fertilizer application can be made in early spring.
