Emphasizing its unique presence not only elevates the aesthetic appeal of your property but also creates a welcoming atmosphere that draws the eye.
Planting & Care
1. Planting: Plant or repot within 4 weeks of arrival. Choose a spot with well-draining soil and full sun to partial shade. Dig a hole twice as wide as the root ball but no deeper than the root ball itself. Carefully place the shrub in the hole and backfill with soil, ensuring the root flare is just above the ground level.
2. Watering: Water your shrub deeply after planting and continue to provide water regularly, especially during dry spells. Once established, it requires less frequent watering. Make sure the soil remains moist but not waterlogged.
3. Pruning: Prune in late winter or early spring to maintain its shape and encourage bushier growth. Thinning out older branches can help improve air circulation and allow for new growth.
4. Fertilizing: Fertilize in early spring with a balanced, slow-release fertilizer to promote healthy growth. Avoid over-fertilizing, as it can lead to excessive foliage at the expense of the plant's natural shape.
