Planting & Care

Select a location with good drainage and full sun to partial shade. Dig a hole twice as wide as the root ball and equally deep, then position the plant so the top of the root ball aligns with the surrounding soil level. Backfill with a mixture of native soil and compost, water thoroughly, and apply mulch around the base. Water regularly during the first two growing seasons to establish a deep root system. Once established, water during extended dry periods, and prune minimally in late winter or early spring to maintain shape and remove any damaged branches.
