Plant Care

Kaleidoscope Mountain Laurel thrives with proper care and attention. Maintain consistently moist but not waterlogged soil, and apply a layer of mulch to help retain moisture and regulate soil temperature. Fertilize in early spring with an acid-loving plant fertilizer. Prune after flowering to maintain shape and remove any dead or damaged branches. Protect from harsh winter winds and apply winter protection in colder regions.

Planting Instructions

Plant in spring or fall for best results. Dig a hole twice the width of the root ball and as deep as the container. Mix organic matter into the native soil for improved drainage. Remove the plant from the container and gently loosen the roots. Place in the hole at the same depth as it was growing in the container, backfill with soil mixture, and water thoroughly. Space plants 4-5 feet apart for optimal growth.
