furin-tsutsuji

Furin-tsutsuji (Enkianthus campanulatus 'Showy Lantern') should be watered 2-3 times per week, applying enough water to thoroughly saturate the soil at each watering. Outdoors, allow the top centimeter of soil to dry out between waterings. If the soil dries out before the regularly scheduled watering, water the plant sooner, and adjust watering frequency as needed. Indoors, check the soil moisture level before watering and water when it's just about dry. To prevent over-watering, always use drainage holes and never allow the plant to sit in standing water.

Furin-tsutsuji (Enkianthus campanulatus 'Showy Lantern') prefers full sun, but can grow in partial shade, and does best when grown in sun-dappled light. Ideally, the plant should receive about 5 hours of direct sun each day, preferably in the morning or late afternoon. If grown in completely sunny spots, water more frequently and provide additional protection against harsh midday sun.

Furin-tsutsuji (Enkianthus campanulatus 'Showy Lantern') should be pruned in spring before the new growth begins so as to encourage new growth and improve the overall shape of the plant. Pruning should be done judiciously, but all dead, broken or diseased branches should be removed. As well prioritizing the removal of any branches that cross or grow inward, as this can negatively affect the overall shape and health of the plant. In general, the goal should be to remove around 15-20% of the old, woody growth each year. It's important not to prune too severely, as this can shock the plant and cause it to enter a state of decline.
