GROWING TIPS

Choose a sunny location with well-draining soil. Water the plant regularly while it establishes, but avoid keeping the roots waterlogged. Leave enough space for the mature shrub to develop and provide good airflow around the foliage.

The plant may be dormant or have reduced foliage during winter, depending on the species, climate, and season. A dormant plant is not necessarily dead; check for healthy stems and roots before planting and allow for seasonal growth.
