Planting & Care

Planting Instructions: Theyre adaptable, resistant to disease, pests and more, but your Podocarpus needs proper care to thrive.

First, choose an area with at least 4 to 8 hours of sunlight per day. After scouting the location for yourPodocarpus, dig a hole thats at least two to three times wider than your trees root ball. Once youve placed your Podocarpus, back fill its soil, tamp down to avoid air pockets and then water to help establish its roots.

Watering: Its moderately drought tolerant, but regular waterings are important (one or two thorough waterings weekly) for the first few growing seasons to establish the Podocarpus’ root system. If youre not sure when to water your Podocarpus, simply check the surrounding soil, down to around 2 or 3 inches. If your trees soil is dry, its time to water it.

Once its established, you can reduce frequency, but somewhat regular watering is important (depending on your soil needs, once a week should be fine).

Fertilizing: The Podocarpus is slow growing, so it benefits from fertilizer. Feed your tree with a well-balanced formula in early spring, before new growth emerges.

Pruning: Prune your Podocarpus Tree annually for your desired shape or landscape needs.
