Pro Tip: 

This tree is tough, but prefers to be protected from the wind in winter especially in growing zone 6. Wind and harsh temperatures can cause needle burn. Watering deeply prior to severe cold snaps can help with needle burn. This condition usually resolves on its own when the tree puts on new growth.

Plant this dwarf evergreen tree in spring or fall for best results. A full sun site is best for this tree, but it can tolerate some shade. This tree does not grow well in wet soil. Choose a spot with well-draining soil. While your tree is establishing it should be watered deeply about twice per week. After this tree is established it is drought tolerant and only requires water during periods of extreme drought. Use a slow release fertilizer when planting and in spring to feed this small tree.
