- Size (H × W)
- 4 Meter Height cm
- Sunlight
- Full Sun to Partial Shade. This tree performs best in a sunny, open location. While it can handle some shade, consistent exposure to sunlight is what keeps the foliage dense from the ground up.
- Watering
- High (Initial). Because this is a 4-meter-tall mature plant, it requires a significant amount of water in the first two seasons to help it re-establish its root system in its new location. Monitor soil moisture closely during the summer and provide deep, thorough soakings during dry spells.
- Soil & Drainage
- Adaptable to most soil types, including heavy clay, provided they are not permanently waterlogged. For such a large specimen, ensure the planting pit is wide and deep enough to encourage lateral root spread, and use a layer of organic mulch to help retain soil moisture.
