General Care
- Sunlight: Requires at least 4 hours of direct sunlight daily.
- Watering: Keep consistently watered during the first year to establish healthy roots. Once established, occasional deep watering is beneficial during hot, dry periods.
- Mulching: Apply a 2–3 inch layer of mulch around the base to help retain moisture and regulate soil temperature, ensuring mulch does not contact the trunk.
- Pruning: Minimal pruning is necessary; remove any dead or damaged branches to maintain a healthy, attractive shape.
Bring unique texture and subtle, seasonal color to your outdoor space with the naturally elegant ‘Whipcord’ Arborvitae.
