Where it thrives: NSW, ACT, VIC, TAS, SA, WA and South East QLD (not suited to Northern QLD)
Pruning: Prune 1-3 times per year after flowering for a tidy hedge, more frequent pruning will result in a tidier hedge. This plant can be left unpruned as it has a naturally tidy shape, however, for Northern NSW and QLD pruning is recommended
Establishment & Extra Care:
Water as required for 8-13 weeks until established.
Plant in a well mulched garden, a chunky mulch is recommended.
Use slow release fertiliser in spring, if required.
Avoid wet feet and depressed planting areas where the plant may be sitting in water, this can cause fungal problems.
