    Choose the Right Location
    Golden Spirit Smokebush prefers full sun and well-drained soil. Adequate moisture is important, especially in hot weather. Pruning can be done in late winter or early spring to shape the plant and encourage new growth. This smokebush variety features golden-yellow foliage and adds a burst of color to garden borders or as a focal point in the landscape. It is known for its striking foliage changes throughout the season. Proper mulching helps retain moisture and regulate soil temperature. Adequate spacing allows for good air circulation. It is relatively low-maintenance.

Watering

Water thoroughly when the top inch of soil feels dry, ensuring even moisture without overwatering. Most plants prefer deep, infrequent watering to encourage strong root growth. Avoid waterlogged soil by using well-draining soil and pots with drainage holes.

Soil

Choose a well-draining soil that suits your plant’s needs, ensuring it provides proper nutrients and aeration. For most plants, a high-quality triple mix—blending topsoil, compost, and peat or loam—offers a balanced foundation. Avoid heavy, compacted soils that retain excess moisture, which can lead to root rot.

Fertilizer

Feed with a balanced fertilizer as needed, following label instructions, or contact our team for guidance.

Pruning

Prune regularly to remove dead or damaged growth, maintain shape, and promote healthy, vigorous new growth. Use clean, sharp tools and trim just above a node or bud for best results.
