Plant Care

Tips for Success:  

• Use fertilizer only at the beginning of active growth. 

• Water when soil surface appears dry and then   thoroughly saturate the root ball. 

• Give partial sun year-round.  

• Give 30-40°F nighttime temperatures during the winter.   Warm nights during the winter time will cause “bud blast.”   Up to 59°F is okay. 

• Give a slightly acidic soil between (soil ph between 4.8 - 5.8) 

• Pinch back young cuttings to get full and bushy growth,   although this discourages flowering early on. 

• 1 tablespoon of Epsom Salts/ one gallon of water given twice a   year supplies their magnesium requirements.
