Care Guide

PLANTING:

• Choose an area that provides well-draining soil and ample sunlight.
• Dig a hole that is twice as wide as the root ball and just as deep.
• Place the plant in the hole, spreading the roots evenly.
• Fill in with soil and gently press down to eliminate any air pockets.
• Water thoroughly after planting.

SOIL:

• Prefers well-draining soil.
  
• If the soil is heavy or clay-like, consider adding organic matter to improve drainage.

MULCH:

• Apply a 2-3 inch layer of mulch around the base of the plant.
• This will help to conserve moisture and regulate soil temperature.

LIGHT:

• Requires full sun exposure to thrive.
• Place the plant in an area that receives at least 6 hours of direct sunlight per day.

WATER:

• Water during the first two months twice a week, increase in extreme hot days, as plants mature reduce water frequency to once a week.
• During the winter, water sparingly or only when the soil is dry to the touch.

FERTILIZE:

• This juniper does not require heavy fertilization.
• If desired, apply a slow-release fertilizer once a year in the spring.

PRUNING:

• Prune during the spring or early summer, before new growth begins.
• Cut back any shoots that are growing in an undesirable direction.
• Do not over-prune, as this can damage the plant.
