Description: Burning bush grows well in USDA plant hardiness zones 4 to 8 but can become invasive in the warmer ranges. Burning bush plants may get 9 to 15 feet (2.5 – 4.5 m.) tall and are suitable for full sun to partial sun locations. Any soil type, including alkaline, may support burning bush growth. However, when growing burning bush, it’s best to place the shrub in sites with excellent drainage but lightly moist soil. Sowing instructions Place the seeds in a plastic bag or container filled with moist sand. Clearly label the date and contents on the bag with a permanent marker. Put the bag in the back of the refrigerator to stratify, or chill, the seeds for three months, recommends Plant Care Today. Stratification simulates a winter dormancy period, important for many types of seeds to germinate.After this coling phase, prepare a location with a heating trayPlace a heating pad in a brightly lit location. Cover it with plastic to protect it from moisture and turn it on the lowest setting.
