information: These beautiful little gems are a bit
difficult to care for... but well worth a try. There seem to be
two varieties of this plant available. A small leaf (pictured) and
a larger leaf... that is easier to keep.
Place your "Snow Bush" where it will receive some
direct sunshine. Nearly any plant with a large amount of white in
it's leaves will need some direct sunshine. Keep the soil moist...
but not soggy. "Snow Bush" is very sensitive to wet
feet, so don't allow your plant to sit in a saucer of water. Feed
monthly while actively growing... bi-monthly when resting. Feed
with a balanced liquid plant food such as Peter's Plant Food.
Propagation is difficult.
"Snow Bush" is usually available in 4" and
6" pots, and occasionally in 8" containers.
