Planting and Growing Information

'Night Before Christmas' thrives in partial to full shade conditions across USDA hardiness zones 3-9, making it suitable for projects throughout the continental US. Plant in moist, well-drained, humus-rich soil for optimal growth. While drought-tolerant once established, regular watering produces the best foliage display.
