How To Grow

Excellent pest and disease resistance

Generally pest and disease free. Honey fungus and scale insects are possible.MORE

Keep moist and water during dry spells

Water frequently while the plant is getting established, and always keep moist.

Full Sun

Ceanothus appreciates Full sun and a sheltered spot. In more exposed gardens it will benefit from a position near a South or West facing wall to provide shelter.

Loam/Sand

Ceanothus loves a moist, well-drained loamy or sandy soil.

Annually

Ceanothus need little or no regular feeding in most garden soils. However to encourage strong new growth after pruning, plants can be fed annually in spring. Mulch at least 5cm (2in) thick, can be applied to the soil surface in late autumn to late winter (Nov-Feb).
