✂️ Maintenance
This shrub is very easy to grow and low-maintenance. Its semi-evergreen and dense foliage makes it an excellent choice for hedges, borders, or privacy screens. It can be pruned regularly to maintain a compact and structured shape.
Prune lightly in spring to encourage dense branching and a balanced habit. Remove dead or damaged branches as needed. Apply a light mulch at the base to improve drainage and enrich the soil.
Minimal intervention is required once the plant is established. Very hardy and suitable for gardens of all experience levels.
