Well-draining sandy soil with added organic matter for moisture retention. Good drainage is essential for Swenson & Martinsson 319 to prevent waterlogging, which leads to root rot and fungal issues.

Feed Swenson & Martinsson 319 every 6 months during the growing season with a balanced, slow-release fertilizer at the rate on the label. Established shrubs in good soil often need little extra feeding, so let weak growth or pale foliage guide you.

Stop feeding by late summer so new growth can harden before winter.
