Planting & Care

1. Planting: Plant or repot within 4 weeks of arrival. Choose a site with well-drained soil and clear the area of weeds. Dig a hole about twice the width of the root ball, place the shrub in the center, and backfill with soil, ensuring the top of the root ball is level with the surrounding ground. Apply a 3" layer of mulch three feet around the tree, pulling the mulch back a few inches from the trunk.

2. Watering: Water the shrub deeply after planting, ensuring the soil is moist but not waterlogged. Water 2–3 times a week for the first growing season, adjusting for your local conditions. Water when the soil is dry 2" down, right around the rootball. Water deeply and slowly, allowing the water to penetrate the top 12" of soil. After establishment, water during periods of dry, hot weather.

3. Pruning: Prune lightly in late winter or early spring to maintain shape and encourage new growth. Remove any dead or damaged branches and shape the plant as needed to keep it tidy.

4. Fertilizing: Fertilize in early spring with a balanced, slow-release fertilizer to promote healthy growth.
