Planting & Care
1. Planting: Plant where it can receive full sunlight (between 6-8 hours per day). It can grow in any well-drained soil, but sandy soil is ideal. If planted in a container, fill with a well-drained potting soil and at least one good drainage hole. Allow at least 2 feet on each side of the plant and 2-3 feet away from sidewalks or driveways.
2. Watering: Water regularly for the first year (but let the soil dry out completely between each watering). Then, water occasionally, especially during periods of hot, dry weather. Be careful not to overwater.
3. Fertilization: You can feed this plant lightly before new growth appears in spring with a good-quality, general-purpose fertilizer.
