Planting & Care

1. Planting: The Eastern Snowball Bush will perform well in either full sun or partial shade (about 3 to 6 hours of sunlight per day), depending on where you’re located. In warmer climates, provide the plant with afternoon shade. In cooler areas, it can take full sun.

Dig a hole that’s three times the width of the container (the root ball) and just as deep. Place the plant in the hole so that the top of the rootball is even with the soil level. Backfill your soil and water lightly every few inches as you backfill to remove any air pockets. Finally, mulch the surrounding area once planting is complete.

If you’re container-planting, select a pot that’s about twice the width of your Snowball’s shipped container, use organic soil, and place your plant in proper sunlight.

2. Watering: Water your Snowball Bush after the soil has had a chance to dry out about 2 inches down. The frequency will vary depending on your climate and weather conditions. They will need more water during times of excessive heat and drought. However, your Snowball will not need to be watered after it goes dormant for the season or after the ground freezes.

3. Fertilizing: Generally, the Snowball won’t need a lot of additional fertilizer. To increase blooming, you can fertilize in the early spring with a high phosphorus fertilizer like bone meal or bloom booster.

4. Pruning: Prune the Snowball immediately after flowering for shaping and to remove damaged or dead limbs.
