Planting: Plant or repot within 4 weeks of arrival. Choose a sunny spot in your garden with well-drained soil for optimal growth. Ensure the hole is twice as wide as the root ball and about as deep. 2. Watering: Once planted, water regularly during the first growing season to establish a strong root system. Afterward, this plant is moderately drought-tolerant but thrives with consistent moisture during dry spells. 3. Pruning: Prune back the plant in late winter or early spring before new growth begins to maintain its shape and encourage lush growth. Remove any dead or damaged stems to promote overall health. 4. Fertilizing: Feed with a balanced fertilizer in early spring to support growth and flowering. A light application mid-summer can enhance foliage color and flower production.
