    Maintenance Notes: 

    Self-cleaning, no deadheading necessary. Plants may be trimmed back with a sharp pair of scissors or pruning shears at anytime, although this is not usually necessary. Plants may flush out of flower if night temperatures begin to stay in the upper 70's or above. If this happens a light trim to shape them would be good. The trim will increase branching and will result in more flowers once the temperatures fall and the plants begin flowering again.

    A yearly application of fertilizer or compost on garden beds and regular fertilization of plants in pots will help ensure the best possible performance.

    • I’m in zone 5A, and I have two 10 gallon pots of these Aromance Mulberry plants, one pot on each side of my yard bench swing. They look like a wildflower to me, and the fragrance is truly spectacular… soft, mellow, not over powering. My wife isn’t very fond of fragrant plants and flowers, but she likes these, so that’s a plus too lol. I’m going to definitely grow these again next year, and have more of them around my garden and yard! I’m going to try to over winter some of these.

    • This plant smells amazing and is very beautiful. I am in zone 6 and it is growing and blooming beautifully. I tried it in two hanging baskets along with Silver Falls Draconian and Bordeaux Supertunia. It is my new favorite plant.
