Suitable location and application

Growing conditions

Smaragd prefers sunny to semi-shady locations and well-drained soils. Watering is important, especially during dry periods, but care should be taken to avoid waterlogging around the roots.

Planting and care

When planting, it is important to leave enough space between plants to ensure good airflow and development. After planting, watering should be regular, especially in the first few months. Pruning is not mandatory but can be done to maintain the desired shape. Winter protection is not necessary as the plant is resistant to cold.
