Care Guide
Type: Deciduous Shrub
Sunlight: Thrives in Full Sun to Semi-Shade. Full sun produces the brightest golden foliage, while light afternoon shade is beneficial in very hot climates.
Water: Water regularly while establishing. Once established, it is drought tolerant and only requires occasional deep watering during prolonged dry periods.
Soil: Prefers fertile, well-drained soil but adapts well to most soil types, provided drainage is good.
Frost: Frost Hardy. Tolerates light to heavy frost and performs well in colder regions.
Maintenance: Prune lightly after flowering or in late winter to maintain its compact shape. Wear gloves when pruning, as the stems have sharp thorns.
