Growing Veitchii

Plant it in part sun. It prefers high water. It is hardy in USDA zones 8–11. Expect it to reach about 4.3 ft tall and 3.6 ft wide at maturity, in roughly 4 years.

When to plant Veitchii

Plant Veitchii in early spring as soon as the soil is workable, or in early fall at least six weeks before your first frost, so roots establish in cool weather. For the middle of its hardy zones 8 to 11 range, spring means January to March and fall means October or November. Once settled, it blooms from May to September.

Month-by-month timing for your zone is on the planting calendar: for the middle of its range, start with zone 9 in January.
