In shrubberies, flowering hedges or containers.
In acid, non-chalky soil. Dig a hole three times the size of the root ball. Remove the plant from its container and thoroughly soak the root ball. Half-fill the hole with a mixture of 2/3 acid compost and 1/3 garden soil enriched with manure. Place the plant (not too deeply) in the hole and continue filling around the root ball. Water well the first year.
Add a specialised fertiliser in springtime if necessary. Prune at the end of spring to maintain a compact form.
