Evergreen foliage with a delightful scent

This charming plant brings a lovely touch to arid, Southwestern gardens with its evergreen foliage, which not only stays vibrant but adds a delightful aroma to your landscape. Its resilience makes it particularly appealing for those looking to create a low-maintenance yet attractive yard. Plus, it is deer resistant, making it a fantastic option for gardeners who want to keep their precious plants safe from nibbling wildlife.

If you're searching for an adaptable plant with character, look no further. With a preference for well-drained soil, this little trooper thrives while avoiding soggy conditions and extreme pruning. A gentle trim during the cooler months can keep it looking its best, allowing you to enjoy its beauty year-round. Whether used as a ground cover or in pots, this evergreen addition will enhance your outdoor space with lovely greenery and a refreshing fragrance.

Planting & Care

1. Planting: Plant or repot within 4 weeks of arrival. Ensure the planting site has well-drained soil to prevent waterlogging.

2. Watering: Water deeply but infrequently, allowing the soil to dry out between waterings. This helps establish strong root development.

3. Pruning: Shear back lightly in the cool season to maintain shape and promote healthy growth. Avoid excessive cutting to keep it thriving.

4. Fertilizing: Apply a balanced fertilizer in early spring to encourage robust growth. Follow package instructions for application rates.

Get peace of mind: We guarantee your plants will arrive alive and ready to thrive! If you’re not satisfied or have issues with your plants within the first 30 days, we will replace them for you.

Growing zone matters: Plants that are not suited for your growing zone will not be covered by this guarantee. If you’re not sure whether a plant will work for your location, our Plant Experts are here to help!

Note on dormancy: If you order a deciduous tree in winter or spring and it arrives without leaves, it is likely dormant. If your tree does not start showing growth by that June, we'll be happy to help!

Drop N Grow™

Because this tree is grown in a burlap bag, its roots grow into the cloth, rather than circling around the pot. This brings moisture and nutrients into the tree, for faster, healthier growth and ease. Simply dig your hole, place the Drop 'N Grow™ bag in the center (burlap included), then use excess dirt to fill the hole. That's it!
