Maintenance:

To ensure the health and beauty of Philadelphus 'Mont Blanc', follow these maintenance tips:

1. Light Requirements: Plant in a location that receives full sun to partial shade. 'Mont Blanc' thrives in at least 4-6 hours of direct sunlight daily for optimal flowering.

2. Soil Conditions: Well-draining soil is preferred. Amend heavy clay soils with organic matter to improve drainage and fertility. 'Mont Blanc' is adaptable to various soil types.

3. Watering: Provide regular watering, especially during dry periods, to keep the soil consistently moist. Deep watering is recommended to encourage a strong root system. Avoid overwatering, as it can lead to root rot.

4. Fertilization: Apply a balanced slow-release fertilizer in early spring, following the package instructions for proper dosage and application. Avoid excessive fertilization, as it can result in lush foliage but fewer flowers.

5. Pruning: Prune 'Mont Blanc' immediately after flowering by removing any dead, damaged, or crossing branches. This promotes a tidy appearance and encourages new growth and more abundant blooms for the following year.

6. Mulching: Apply a layer of organic mulch around the base of the shrub, leaving space around the stem to prevent rot. Mulching helps conserve soil moisture, suppress weed growth, and regulate soil temperature.
