General Care
Soil Prefers neutral to alkaline soils, but is fairly adaptable. Good drainage is imperative.
Pruning Blooms on old and new wood - prune after spring bloom if desired. Doing so will delay rebloom but also encourages it.
Uses Hedges; mixed borders; foundation plantings; specimen.
Growing Tips A light trim after spring bloom neatens the plant's appearance and encourages rebloom, though it does delay it slightly.
