For successful planting, select a spot with soil that drains well and receives partial to full sunlight. When planting, make sure to dig a hole that is twice as wide as the root ball and ensure that the top of the root ball is level with the soil surface.
Make sure to keep the soil consistently moist, especially in the initial growing season. After being planted, the Plum Gorgeous™ Loropetalum can handle some drought but does well with a good soak during long periods without rain.
Applying a layer of organic mulch, like shredded bark or compost, around the base of the plant helps to conserve moisture, suppress weeds, and regulate soil temperature.
Pruning is kept to a minimum to preserve the plant's shape and size. After the blooming period, it's a good idea to lightly prune to encourage bushier growth and get rid of any dead or damaged branches.
For optimal growth, make sure to fertilize your Plum Gorgeous™ Loropetalum with a balanced fertilizer like our SR-18-5-10 slow release fertilizer in early spring before new growth appears. Be cautious about using too much fertilizer, as it may result in an abundance of leaves rather than flowers.
