Basic Care Tips:
-
Planting Location: Choose a well-drained area with partial to full sun exposure. The Japanese Umbrella Pine prefers protection from intense afternoon sun, especially in warmer regions.
-
Soil: The tree thrives in slightly acidic to neutral soil. Amending the soil with organic matter can improve drainage and fertility.

Watering: Maintain consistently moist soil, especially during the tree's establishment period. However, ensure that the soil doesn't become waterlogged, as Japanese Umbrella Pines prefer well-drained conditions.
-
Pruning: Minimal pruning is needed, primarily for shaping or removing damaged branches. Trim sparingly in late winter or early spring.
-
Mulching: Apply a layer of mulch around the base of the tree to conserve moisture and control weeds. Keep the mulch away from the trunk to prevent rot.
-
Fertilization: Fertilize in the spring with a balanced, slow-release fertilizer to provide essential nutrients for healthy growth.
-
Winter Protection: In colder zones, consider providing winter protection, such as burlap wrapping, to shield the tree from harsh winter winds and heavy snow.
-
Pest and Disease Resistance: Japanese Umbrella Pines are naturally resistant to many pests and diseases, making them a low-maintenance choice for your garden.

FAQ
How are heights measured?
Tree and Shrub heights are measured from the top of the root ball or soil, measuring only the above ground portion of your tree or shrub.
How does shipping work?
We ship either UPS or via our own delivery trucks. After you place your order you'll receive notifications at each step of the way to keep you informed on your item's travels!
