Professional Growing Information Bought these as 4-inch cans and planted in early June. These were ROCK STARS! Planted in-ground in a Chicago courtyard where they received close to 6 hours of sun from 12-6pm. They were covered in blooms all year with no disease issues. Will definitely be buying more of these in the future. If you want the color and effect of supertunias but struggle to keep them consistently watered you might want to try this as an alternative.
