Landscape Uses:
The plant is versatile and can be used for hedges, screens, borders, and mass plantings.
It offers year-round beauty with its distinctive red-tinged new foliage.
Key Care Tips
🪴Pruning:
Regular pruning helps encourage new red growth, maintains the desired size and shape, and improves air circulation, which reduces the risk of fungal diseases.
🪴Watering:
Water deeply once or twice a week during the first growing season to establish a strong root system. After that, the plant can be more drought-tolerant but still benefits from regular water.
🪴Mulching:
Apply a 2-3 inch layer of mulch around the base to help retain soil moisture and moderate temperature, but keep it away from the trunk to prevent rot.
🪴Disease Prevention:
Due to its susceptibility to Entomosporium leaf spot, ensure good air circulation and remove fallen leaves from the ground.
