  • Planting Time: Early spring or fall is best. See how to plant them here!
  • Sun Needs: Full sun to part shade; afternoon shade in hot zones
  • Soil Needs: Well-drained soil is essential; slightly acidic to neutral pH is ideal
  • Moisture Needs: Moderate watering; use the Finger Test to check soil moisture
  • Mulch/Arborist Mulch: Apply a 3-4 inch deep layer, pulled back 6 inches from the trunk
  • Fertilization Needs: Use a balanced, slow-release fertilizer in early spring
