Growing Yankee Point Ceanothus
- Plant Yankee Point Ceanothus in a location with full sun to partial shade, ensuring it receives at least 4-6 hours of sunlight daily for optimal growth and blooming.
- Water the plant regularly during its establishment period, then reduce watering frequency, allowing the soil to dry out slightly between sessions, as it is drought-tolerant once established.
- Use well-draining soil, such as sandy or loamy soil, to prevent waterlogging and root rot, promoting healthy root development.
- Yankee Point Ceanothus is hardy in USDA zones 8-10 and thrives in mild, coastal climates with well-drained soil.
- Prune the plant lightly after flowering to maintain its shape, remove dead or leggy growth, and encourage bushier growth, promoting continuous blooming throughout the growing season.
