Cephalanthus is perfect for growing in a south or west facing location in full sun, where they will thrive and add interest and colour from spring to autumn. Ideal for planting on arrival into fertile and well drained, Loam or Sandy soil in a location that is sheltered.
Very hardy by its natural habit, this deciduous shrub looks fantastic as a border impact shrub. Prune in early spring to maintain a compact habit and shape, and apply some mulch after prunning.
