 Growing a Burning Bush, Dictamnus albus, in your Garden
Dictamnus is a long lived plant which resents transplanting, so choose your planting spot carefully so you won't have to move it later.
It will take up to four years for the first flowers to appear, so unless you are very patient, you are probably better off to purchase your plants from a good nursery.
The new Spring foliage has a tendency to attract slugs and snails, so take the proper precautions if you don't want your plant to be quickly ravaged by these awful creatures!
