Planting and Growing

Adam's Needle will grow to be about 30 inches tall at maturity extending to 5 feet tall with the flowers | with a spread of 3 feet.

This shrub should only be grown in full sunlight. It prefers dry to average moisture levels with very well-drained soil | and will often die in standing water. It is considered to be drought-tolerant | and thus makes an ideal choice for a low-water garden or xeriscape application. It is not particular as to soil type or pH. It is somewhat tolerant of urban pollution. This species is native to parts of North America.
