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.  Requires well-draining soil. Prefers fertile soil that is neutral or a bit alkaline. Best in full sun or light shade, keep base and roots completely shaded. "Feet in the shade, head in the sun" is a saying you may have heard for successfully growing clematis, so plant it where the vine gets sunshine but the roots stay cool. You can accomplish this with mulch, or by shading the root zone with a nearby shrub or perennial. Benefits from staking, cages, or neighboring plants for support. Each spring, they can be trimmed down to 2-3' tall, but not required.
