Mixing organic materials like compost into the existing soil improves water permeability and nutrient availability. Plants grown in pots can be planted year-round, except during frost periods. After planting, it's important to water the plants until they are well-rooted. The size of the plant determines the number of plants per square metre. For Mahonia × media 'Winter Sun', consider spacing them appropriately. Follow these planting instructions for best results.

Pruning a Mahonia × media 'Winter Sun'

Ensure excess water can drain away to prevent root rot, whether the plant is in the ground or a pot.

Heijnen's Organic Starter Fertilizer and Organic Maintenance Fertilizer are excellent choices. Fertilise twice a year, in spring and summer, to ensure the plant receives the nutrients it needs. The amount of fertiliser depends on the plant's size. Nutrients are absorbed when rain or watering dissolves them into the soil. During dry spells, water the garden to help release nutrients for the roots to absorb.
