Care Guide
Type: Deciduous Shrub
Sunlight: Thrives in Full Sun to Semi-Shade. Full sun encourages the best foliage colour and a dense, compact growth habit.
Water: Water regularly while establishing. Once established, it is drought tolerant and only requires occasional deep watering during extended dry periods.
Soil: Prefers fertile, well-drained soil but adapts well to most soil types, provided drainage is good. Adding compost at planting will encourage healthy growth.
Frost: Frost Hardy. Tolerates light to heavy frost and performs well in colder climates.
Maintenance: Prune lightly after flowering or during late winter to maintain its shape and encourage fresh new growth. Wear gloves when pruning, as the branches are thorny.
