Homeowner Growing and Maintenance Tips:

For new plantings
1. Dig a hole one and a half times wider than the plant's container
2. Place plant in hole, keeping the top of the root ball ground level
3. Back fill with dirt
4. Water thoroughly and then mulch around the base to conserve moisture and reduce weeds
New plantings require more frequent watering than established plants. Wind, temperature and soil are factors to consider in watering.
Feed plants in early spring and again in early fall with an all-purpose fertilizer, following label instructions.


Care Instructions
Abelia plants like full sun or partial shade and well-draining, semi-acidic soil. Water deeply once a week, allowing the soil to dry before watering again. Fertilize during the growing season with a slow-release balanced fertilizer. Prune after flowering to maintain size and shape. Additionally, watch for mites, aphids, and whiteflies, and treat if present.
