Planting & Care
1. Planting: Choose a location that receives full sun and has well-draining soil. Dig a hole twice as wide as the root ball and place the plant in at the same depth it was in the container. Backfill gently and water thoroughly to eliminate air pockets.
2. Watering: Water the shrub regularly after planting to establish roots. Once established, it tolerates drought conditions but will appreciate deep watering during prolonged dry spells to maintain healthy foliage.
3. Pruning: Light pruning can enhance its shape and encourage denser growth. It’s best to prune in early spring before new growth begins, removing any dead or crossing branches for a tidier appearance.
4. Fertilizing: Apply a balanced, slow-release fertilizer in early spring to support robust growth. Follow the manufacturer's guidelines for application rates. Be careful not to over-fertilize, as this can damage the roots.
