The Basics
This slow-growing evergreen tree can grow to sizes as large as 60 feet tall and wide, however the shape and height can be controlled. Its foliage emerges rusty-red and turns green as it matures. Older leaves take on dark green coloration, then they take on the same rusty-red color before turning bright red and falling off. This tree is a great choice for locations that cannot grow similar evergreens due to its versatility. The Needs Amount of Sunlight: Full to partial sun Amount of Water: Needs regular watering until established Soil Conditions: loam, well-draining, moist Cold Hardiness Zone: 9-11 The Care Follow a regular watering schedule during the first growing season to establish a deep, extensive root system. Provide well-drained loamy soil. Limit shearing to twice a year since this plant is so slow growing. |
