It prefers a well drained light garden soil. Very hardy over a wide range. Adaptable to most soil types and moisture levels. Blossoms are double pink and prolific.

I bought this bush and grew it very well in Atlanta, GA for 5 years...it is very hardy for near-drought conditions, extreme heat & clay.I could not bear to part with my bush when I moved, and I successfully transplanted it to N. FL...enjoying it still in sandy soil today. Flowers beautifully in early Spring (Feb/Mar) with delicate minature pink carnation-like flowers in clusters on the branches. Leaves are medium-green, thin and long. Bush grows rapidly with a spreading outwards and upwards habit. Easily trimmed if desired. Leaves drop in Fall/Winter. Does not tolerate weed-killer chemicals very well, be careful!!

My favorite spring flowering shrub is in trouble. All the old branches are barren after a very icey winter. I have new flowering brances emerging from the ground. Should I prune the barren branches off? They do not seem to be completely dead. My heart is broken..Would appreciate any and all advice. Thanks

Answer from Nature Hills: You can wait a little longer but if you have new shoots maybe your best bet would be to prune the old barren shoots and let the new ones thrive.
