Care Information
Follow a regular watering schedule during the first growing season to establish a deep, extensive root system. Feed with a general purpose fertilizer before new growth begins in spring. For a tidy, neat appearance, shear annually to shape. Pruning time: spring after flowering.
Design Ideas
Where you need height but can't sacrifice much area, plant this narrow, tall shrub to separate buildings, line an alley or simply blockout a neighbor's window. Shear or allow it to assume its natural character.
