		Pieris can be planted in spring or fall, when weather is cool and rainfall abundant.
		The plant should be set at the same depth it was growing in the nursery pot.
		Once the plants are established, irrigation is less crucial, but a thorough watering during summer dry periods is beneficial.

	Ecology: Benefits And Costs Of Induced Plant Defense For Lepidium Virginicum - BRASSICACEAE (Site not responding. Last check: 2007-10-22)
		Induced plant responses to herbivory were correlated with an increase in the number of trichomes per leaf and an increase in the diversity of the putatively defensive chemical compounds, glucosinolates, present in the foliage of damaged p lants compared to undamaged controls.
		In field experiments, induction reduced natural colonization of plants by aphids compared to both unmanipulated controls and controls that were damaged (but not induced) by clipping a leaf from the plant using a pair of scissors.
		Perennial plants are poor model systems for answering questions about the evolution and consequences of induced responses from the plant's point of view because measuring lifetime plant fitness is difficult.

		Plants face a diversity of natural enemies, including vertebrate and invertebrate herbivores, and bacterial, viral, and fungal pathogens.
		Anthocyanins are plant pigments that have been implied in resistance to UV radiation and in plant-animal and plant fungal interactions, both mutualistic (in attracting pollinators and seed dispersers) and antagonistic (provinding resistance to fungi and insect herbivores).
		Plants were scored on a categorical scale from Intense Green (=1) to Dark Purple (=9).

	Jeff Chorba Landscape Design - Designing for Deer Resistance
		Through my years of designing and planting landscapes in northeast Pennsylvania, I have observed which plants tend to be deer resistant through all seasons.
		A plant's deer resistance can be determined by how often or severely plants are eaten during moderately harsh winters when the deer's food supply decreases.
		Usually plants that are soft to the touch and high in water content are the first to succumb to damage.

		While P. ramorum has been isolated from Pieris in U.K. nurseries, this is the first isolation of P. ramorum from Pieris in the U.S. The potted Pieris japonica plant, from which the pathogen was isolated and sequenced, was located under a heavily infested California bay laurel tree in an open space reserve of Sonoma County.

		Pieris also has a life cycle that occurs over about 30 days.
		Pieris larvae are particularly fond of eating Brassica leaves, while Pieris adults feed on the nectar in Brassica flowers.
		The "Brassica and Butterfly Life Cycles" activity follows the progress of Brassica from seed to seed as it interconnects with the life cycle of Pieris from egg to egg.
