Growing Golden Tip Conebush

• Plant Golden Tip Conebush (Leucadendron laureolum) in a location with full sun exposure, ensuring it receives at least 6 hours of direct sunlight daily for optimal growth and vibrant foliage color.
• Water the plant regularly during its establishment period, then reduce watering frequency, allowing the soil to dry out between sessions to prevent overwatering, as it is somewhat drought-tolerant once established.
• Use well-draining, acidic soil, such as sandy or loamy soil, to prevent waterlogging and root rot, promoting healthy root development.
• Golden Tip Conebush is hardy in USDA zones 9-11 and thrives in mild, coastal climates with well-drained soil.
• Prune the plant after flowering to maintain its shape, remove spent blooms, and encourage bushier growth, promoting continuous blooming and a tidy appearance.
