How to Plant

1. Site selection: Choose a sunny location, because hairgrass boxwood usually needs sufficient sunlight to grow. Make sure the soil drains well to avoid standing water.

2. Preparing the soil: The hairgrass boxwood is suitable for growing in loose, sandy or loamy soil. Make sure the soil drains well. You can improve soil texture by adding organic matter.

3. Planting: Using seeds, sow according to the directions on the seed package. There should be enough space between plants so that they can grow adequately.

4. Watering: Hairy grass boxwood usually needs a moderate amount of water. Make sure to keep the soil moist, especially after the plant is first planted. As the plant grows, watering frequency can be gradually reduced.

5. Care and Pruning: Hairbush pruning generally requires less pruning. You can prune to promote plant shape and air circulation, but avoid over-pruning. If the plant grows too tall, you may consider pruning to control the height.

6. Fertilizer: During the growing season, you can apply plant fertilizer, but do not over-fertilize to avoid over-fertilization.

7. Protection: Consider protecting your plants from pests and diseases to ensure their health.
