Water regularly during establishment to encourage strong root growth and healthy foliage development. Adding compost to the soil at planting time improves moisture retention and soil structure. Applying mulch around the base helps conserve moisture and suppress weeds throughout the year.

Remove any damaged or weak growth as needed to keep plants healthy and attractive year round.
