Plant in well-drained soil with consistent moisture, and mulch to keep roots cool and hydrated. Prune sparingly in late winter, focusing on removing crossing branches and shaping lightly to highlight its natural form. If you want the most vibrant fall color, give it a bit of sun, and pair it with deep green evergreens to make those autumn tones pop even more.
