JB,
I took a quick look for you plant....
I saw a picture of it, it is very beautiful!!!
I'll look for somemore info on it!
Can you tell us what time of year you pruned it??
And what you did for the soil
(*ie: Fertilizers, soil admendments, how was the drainage?)
And how much did you prune?
Once~just a little??
or
More~and alot??
Did it get alot of sun??
Let us know,
Thanks!
Weezie
Anymore info would be greatly appreciated!!!

Don't forget to be kind to strangers. For some who have
done this have entertained angels without realizing it.

quote:
It will need pruning to be kept neat, and to keep it down to shrub size it should be pruned back hard every year. Pruning will also improve flowering. The best time for pruning is in winter or early spring just before new growth commences. It is known to sprout where prunings have been thrown, and it is an invasive garden escape in parts of Queensland and New South Wales in Australia and in New Zealand.

Search The Garden Helper:
I had lots last year but only a few this time.
Maybe I pruned it the wrong time of the year?
