Please note: Our Ships Now shrubs are still waking up from dormancy! In the spring, shrubs begin to emerge from dormancy with swelling buds and potentially new growth as temperatures rise and daylight hours increase. Most dormant shrubs start leafing out in April, depending on the specific plant and local weather conditions.

Care: Fertilize with Proven Winners Continuous Release Plant Food in spring and mid-summer.  Does not strictly require pruning, though it does tolerate it well. Prune in spring before new growth begins.
