Can’t figure these out

Plant arrived very healthy so no complaints there- but this is my second variety and I chose them for their ability to grow anywhere- and they do! But the growth habit is somewhat ugly. The branches droop over along the ground in all directions and just the ends keep foliage- so you have a bare spot with ugly branches where you want the plant and then a 3 foot ring around it you have greenery. Not sure if this is just because it’s new? We’ll see what next year brings

Hello! Diervilla is a naturally suckering shrub - not really intensely, it's easy to manage, but it does grow suckers. Once once it emerges in the outdoors next spring, it should be fine - just needs some fresh air and sunshine. If you have any additional questions, our team of horticulture experts are here to help! Feel free to send us some photos and your questions to info@greatgardenplants.com. Happy Gardening!

New growth on plants shortly after planting

These plants arrived in good shape, and it was about a week before I could plant them. They are doing very well: it has been a month and they all have nestled in and have new growth. I am pleased with how they arrived and have adapted.

One of our favorite nurseries.

Great healthy plants. Packaging was good and order was correct. Will consider purchasing plants from them again in the future.

My Kodiak Fresh diervilla is thriving after one month. You are right. It seems to be easy to grow since we've had periods of rain and weeks of dry weather during that month. The plant is showing significant growth, and the leaves are already very colorful. I am very pleased.
