When mature, they can reach heights of 4 to 8 meters with a spread of 2.5 to 4 meters.

Usually caused by poor drainage or overwatering; ensure the soil is well-draining and adjust watering frequency.
Check soil quality and ensure the plant is not competing with excessive weeds; consider a balanced fertilizer in spring.
Regular pruning is necessary to stimulate bushy, lateral growth; trim back leading stems in late spring.
To ensure healthy growth, remove the plants carefully from their 3L plastic pots and plant them in well-draining soil. For a uniform hedge line, dig a trench to ensure consistent spacing of 600mm between individual shrubs. Water thoroughly immediately after planting to settle the soil.
Maintenance is vital for this vigorous shrub: perform major pruning in late spring or early summer to encourage health. If you are maintaining a formal hedge, perform light trimming once a month throughout the summer to keep the silhouette sharp and dense.
