Care Guide: Keep the Hair Flowing

  1. Light: Thrives in full sun to part shade. Brighter light enhances its coppery tones, but it’s equally happy with dappled shade.
  2. Soil: Prefers well-draining soil but adapts to sandy, rocky, or even slightly boggy spots. It’s as versatile as it is beautiful.
  3. Watering: Water regularly during the first year to establish roots, then it handles dry spells like a pro.
  4. Feeding: A touch of balanced fertilizer in early spring keeps it lush and full of life.
  5. Pruning: Trim back any tired foliage in late winter to make way for fresh growth, keeping it neat and dynamic.
  6. Hardiness: Hardy down to USDA zone 7, it stays evergreen in mild climates, adding texture year-round.
