Care: Fertilize with Proven Winners Continuous Release Plant Food in spring and mid summer.  Little pruning is required. In general, avoid any severe pruning or cutting back, as recovery will be slow. Any errant branches can be removed as needed. If you wish to grow it as a clipped hedge, you may, but it is necessary to keep on the process, as cuts into branches pencil-thickness or larger are slow to recover from. Any pruning should be done in late spring, and keep well-watered during recovery.
