Growing & Maintenance Tips
Polygonum will grow best in a poor, moist soil, in full sun to partial shade, not tolerating wet or winter wet conditions. A hard pruning back to the old wood can be done in the spring and any time throughout the growing season. Trim the new shoots to control the plant's growth habit.
