To help this plant settle in and thrive, we recommend these standard planting practices: Plant in average, well-draining soil, selecting a site in partial to full shade, as this shrub performs best when protected from intense afternoon sun. Ensure consistent moisture during the first season of establishment to support root development, as the plant can suffer if it dries out completely.
Pruning is rarely necessary due to its naturally low, spreading habit, but it can be done in early spring to remove dead wood or to gently shape the plant if needed. Apply a layer of organic mulch around the root zone to conserve moisture and maintain cool soil temperatures, taking care to keep the material a few inches away from the crown to prevent stem rot.
