Plant Care:

• Benefits from mulch around the base to retain moisture & insulate roots • Requires north & west wind protection • Benefits from snow coverage in winter; exposed branches will die back • Prune to shape in spring; cut down 6-10” tall to remove dead tips & rosehips • Drought tolerant once established; does not tolerate soggy soil • Tolerates heavy clay & sandy, well drained soils
