![]() ![]() They often withhold flowers if they get too little or too much sun. Wrong sun exposure: These plants prefer some early morning sun, then shade during the hottest part of the day.Thus, it's critical that any necessary pruning be done immediately after flowering. If you prune the shrub too late in the year (or too early in the spring) you will remove all the growth that fuels the season's flowers. Improper pruning: These plants flower on "old wood" that developed during the previous season's growth.Young plants are quite sensitive to cold, so they are often brought indoors or into a sheltered greenhouse environment for one or two winters before they are ready for garden planting. This often means growing the shrub in a pot for one to two years. ![]()
