About This Plant
Bold green foliage with crisp white edges forms neat, arching mounds that brighten the garden in every season. Its compact, evergreen habit makes it a beautiful choice for borders, containers, woodland gardens, and mixed plantings, where it adds lasting texture without overwhelming neighboring plants. Easy to grow and low maintenance, it brings clean lines and year-round interest to both sunny and partially shaded landscapes.
Planting & Care
How to Plant
Choose a spot with 6+ hours of direct sun. Dig a hole twice as wide as the pot and plant at the same depth it was growing, gently loosening the roots. Water deeply after planting and add 2–3 in of mulch, keeping it off the stems. Hardy in USDA zones 5-9.
Watering & Feeding
Water deeply 1–2 times a week for the first season, about 1 in per week. Keep soil evenly moist, especially during heat and dry spells. Rarely needs fertilizer; a layer of compost in spring is plenty.
Pruning & Seasonal Care
Evergreen: don't cut back hard. Comb out or trim tattered leaves in spring. Mulch in late fall to protect roots through the first winter.
