Nurturing Your Calluna vulgaris 'B.Ladies'® High Five'

Maintenance:

• Sunlight: 'B.Ladies'® High Five' thrives in full sun to light shade. Provide at least 4-6 hours of direct sunlight daily to promote healthy growth and vibrant foliage.
• Soil Preference: Plant in well-draining, slightly acidic soil. Amending with peat moss or compost can improve soil structure and ensure optimal moisture retention.
• Watering: Maintain consistently moist soil during the establishment period. Once established, 'B.Ladies'® High Five' becomes more drought-tolerant but benefits from regular watering, especially in hot and dry conditions.
• Mulching: Apply a layer of organic mulch around the base of the plant to retain soil moisture and suppress weed growth, creating an ideal growing environment.
• Pruning: After flowering, lightly trim back spent flower stems to encourage new growth and maintain a neat appearance. Avoid cutting into old wood, as heathers don't typically regenerate from this.
• Winter Care: Provide winter protection by mulching around the base and protecting the plant from heavy snow accumulation, especially in colder climates.
• Fertilization: Apply a balanced, slow-release fertilizer in the spring to provide the necessary nutrients for healthy growth and vibrant coloration.
• Pest and Disease: 'B.Ladies'® High Five' is generally resistant to pests and diseases. However, regular monitoring for signs of infestations or diseases is recommended.
