You will also want a spot that has good air circulation. Avoid low-lying, frost-trapping planting sites that might harm the spring blooms. They prefer well-drained soil types, and won’t tolerate standing water. Plant in a raised bed or mounded planting site to improve drainage, if needed. Give a moderate amount of water on a regular basis. Apply a thick layer of mulch over the root system and spread it out to 3 feet past the canopy. Pull mulch back several inches all around the trunk for air circulation. Tip prune to control size in summertime.
