Watering Needs:

Keep soil evenly moist

Care Guide: Rule Like Royalty

1. Light: Loves part shade but can take center stage in full sun in cooler climates. Protect it from harsh afternoon rays—it deserves the royal treatment.
2. Soil: Thrives in rich, well-draining soil. A little compost keeps it living its best life.
3. Watering: Keep it lightly moist—this queen doesn’t do droughts or swamps. Hydration is key, but moderation reigns.
4. Feeding: A springtime dose of balanced fertilizer ensures its colors stay bold and unapologetic.
5. Pruning: Snip off any tired leaves to keep its throne immaculate. A quick tidy-up in late winter preps it for a fresh season.
6. Hardiness: Hardy down to USDA zone 4, this evergreen beauty holds court all year long, frost and all.
