You can accomplish this with mulch, or by shading the root zone with a nearby shrub or perennial.Requires well-drained soil.Hard prune to 2 feet in spring as new growth emerges. Leave at least two pairs of buds on each stem. Fertilize with Proven Winners® Continuous Release Plant Food in spring and midsummer.
