Setup, Compatibility & Care
Upon delivery, the plant arrives in an 18cm pot and measures approximately 80-100cm tall. To establish your tree, choose a well-draining potting compost if placing it in a container, or ensure your garden soil is rich and friable. If planting in a pot, ensure the container has drainage holes to prevent waterlogging. While the plant is drought-tolerant once established, keep it well-watered during the first year after planting. For maintenance, a light trim in mid-to-late summer will help maintain the dense, rounded 'head' of the tree. Feed with a balanced granular fertilizer in the spring to encourage robust new growth. Place the tree in any position from full sun to dappled shade for the best foliage color development.
