Meet your green friend.

Your care routine

Light

Full sun for foliage colour and flowering.

Watering

Water the root zone when the soil begins to dry; avoid standing water.

Soil & drainage

Well-drained soil; use container potting mix in pots.

Fertilizer

If needed, apply a labelled shrub fertilizer in early spring.

Outdoor hardiness

Breeder rating: USDA zones 4–8. Confirm local Canadian suitability.

Humidity

Allow air to circulate between plants. Water the soil rather than wetting foliage.

Through the seasons

Prune lightly immediately after flowering if needed. Spring blooms develop on old wood.

When your plant needs help

  • Check changes in foliage and growth before choosing a treatment.
