Prefers moist soils. May need winter protection in northern areas. Fertilize in early spring by applying a slow release fertilizer specialized for trees and shrubs.

Add aluminum sulfate to the soil to encourage blue flower color.

    • Same beautiful flowers, but the plant is small and compact and doesn't overpower the space it's in. Plant them all around in your beds as accents.
