Planting & Care

Select a location receiving at least 6 to 8 hours of sunlight and dig a hole two to three times wider than the root ball. Plant at the same depth it was shipped, backfill with soil, and water thoroughly to establish roots. Water deeply once weekly, checking soil moisture 2 to 3 inches down; apply a slow-release fertilizer once or twice during summer months. Pruning is optional but can be done in late winter or early spring to maintain shape.
