Answer
Linebacker Distylium is a larger maturing shrub and has a moderate to fast growth rate. Planting and ongoing care makes a difference with how fast a plant gets established and impacts the growth rate. Be certain to check out our planting and care guide. Distylium does best in an acidic soil. Aluminum sulfate is a soil amendment that will help lower the pH. Remember to water well including during the winter months.
