🪴 Care & Maintenance Guide

🌞 Light

• Best: Full sun to partial shade

• Tip: In hotter climates, a little afternoon shade helps foliage look its best

• Once established: drought tolerant

• For containers: water when the top 1–2 inches of soil are dry

🪨 Soil

• Prefers well-draining soil

• Tolerates many soil types once established

• For containers: use a quality potting mix + ensure drainage holes

• Protect from prolonged hard freezes (foliage may burn but can recover in mild winters)

🌿 Fertilization

• Light feeder

• Apply a balanced slow-release fertilizer in spring (optional)

• Avoid over-fertilizing (can cause softer growth)

✂️ Pruning

• Remove browned tips or old leaves as needed

• For a refresh: lightly trim ragged foliage at the end of winter/early spring

• Divide clumps every few years if they get crowded

⚠️ Common Issues

• Browning tips: underwatering, heat stress, or salt/mineral buildup
