General Care
- Sunlight: Thrives in full sun to partial shade, requiring at least 4–6 hours of direct light for the most vibrant fall color.
- Watering:
- Water regularly after planting to establish strong roots; once established, requires minimal supplemental watering except in prolonged dry periods.
- Mulching: A 2–3 inch layer of mulch helps regulate soil temperature and conserve moisture. Maintain a small gap around the trunk to allow airflow.
- Pruning: If shaping is desired, prune in late winter or early spring before new growth. Minimal pruning is needed if a natural, satisfying habit is preferred.
Little Moses Burning Bush offers a grand display of vivid color and a compact, polished form, bringing an inspiring focal point to Michigan landscapes.
