Plant Information
Plant Care
This low-maintenance shrub thrives with minimal attention. Regular watering during the establishment period is essential, transitioning to moderate watering once established. Prune in early spring before new growth emerges to maintain shape and remove any dead or damaged branches. Apply a balanced fertilizer in spring to promote healthy growth and vibrant foliage color. Mulching helps retain moisture and suppress weeds.
Planting Instructions
Choose a location with adequate sunlight and well-draining soil. Dig a hole twice the width of the root ball and equal in depth. Remove the plant from its container and gently loosen the roots. Place the plant in the hole, ensuring it sits at the same depth as it was in the container. Backfill with soil, firming gently to remove air pockets. Water thoroughly and apply a 2-3 inch layer of mulch around the base, keeping it away from the stem.
