Our deciduous shrubs are entering their natural dormancy phase. As part of this process, foliage is turning colors, drying out, and falling off—this is completely normal! Shedding leaves helps the plants conserve energy and prepare for the next growing season. Rest assured, your shrubs will wake up and thrive again when it's time in your growing zone. Dormancy is how they prepare for a healthy, vibrant comeback as the seasons change!

Care: Fertilize with Proven Winners Continuous Release Plant Food in spring and mid-summer. Little to no pruning is required. If you do wish to prune, do so in late spring/early summer, after the new growth has emerged. Avoid cutting into any very thick stems unless you are removing them entirely, as this can leave an unsightly hole in the plant and recovery from such cuts is typically slow.

My tear drops looked good when I received them except one it had a lot of browning on the top to mid way down and I have watered and tried trimming some if it off I just don’t like that burnt end look when the other three are green and lush.

PWD reply

Rishel,

Thank you for sharing!

We're sorry to see its conditions.

We recommend watering daily in the morning if possible, and moving your shrub to a location with partial shade.

If there is no improvement within a few weeks, please feel free to reply to this email with an updated photo.

They were just beautiful when I recieved them, planted the same day, and taking chances planting in the summer.. With some rain and frequent watering they are doing well.

I purchased the cheerdrops arborvitae, miss molly butterfly bush, purple lilac bush and lime punch hydrangea. The hydrangea I am not pleased with. It is very small and wimpy. For the money I paid, I should have gotten a much better plant. I do not expect it to do good at all... The other three are hopeful especially the arborvitae. It arrived beautiful and looking very healthy.

PWD reply

Roger,

Thank you for sharing!! I am so very sorry to hear you are disappointed in your experience thus far. Please be assured that Proven Winners plants are very healthy and vigorous when they leave our greenhouse. However our shrubs are still awakening from their dormancy phase. If you notice the plant is not showing signs of improvement within a couple of weeks, please do reach back out to us with a few detailed photos. It is very beneficial to see what you are seeing to be able to assist you best and we would love that opportunity!
