Planting and Care Guide

Planting Tips

Plant in moist, well-drained, acidic soil (pH 4.5–6.0) enriched with organic matter. Space 4–5 feet apart. Water thoroughly after planting and mulch 2–3 inches deep.

Care Tips

Water consistently, especially during dry periods and the first season. Deadhead spent flower clusters after blooming to encourage better flower production the following year. Prune lightly after flowering only if shaping is needed. Fertilize in spring with an acid-formulated fertilizer. The distinctively banded, pink-and-white flowers are one of the most ornate in the mountain laurel world. Largely pest-free. A standout native evergreen shrub.
