Highlights

  • Fragrant Pink Blooms: The Pink Summersweet produces beautiful, fragrant pink flower spikes that bloom in mid to late summer. The flowers are a favorite of pollinators, including butterflies and bees.
  • Tolerant of Moist Soils: This shrub is tolerant of wet or poorly drained soils, making it an excellent choice for planting near water features or in low-lying areas of the garden.
  • Low-Maintenance: The Pink Summersweet is a relatively low-maintenance shrub that is easy to grow and care for. It is resistant to pests and diseases and does not require pruning, except to remove dead or damaged wood.

Care Guide

  • Watering: Keep the soil evenly moist, especially during the first growing season. Water deeply once a week during hot and dry weather. Avoid overwatering, as this can lead to root rot
  • Maintenance: Remove any dead or damaged branches as needed
  • Pruning: Deadhead spent flowers to promote continuous blooming throughout the summer. Prune back any leggy or overgrown branches in late winter or early spring to maintain the desired shape and size of the plant
  • (Optional):Fertilize in early spring with a slow-release fertilizer formulated for flowering shrubs
