rubykins Korean willow

Rubykins Korean willows need regular watering to keep them looking their best. During their active growing season (April-August), they should be watered at least once a week to ensure proper growth and development. Water deeply and thoroughly, allowing the soil to dry out slightly before each watering. In hotter summer months, you may need to water every day to keep the soil consistently damp, but not excessively soaked. During the winter months, reduce watering to once every 2 weeks or less; the plant should be allowed to dry out more. If you notice wilting leaves, be sure to increase watering.

Rubykins Korean Willow thrives best in full sunlight. For optimal growth, the species should be exposed to sunlight for at least 6 to 8 hours a day. Ideally, this should occur between 10am and 4pm, when direct sunlight is strongest and most abundant. Additionally, Rubykins Korean Willows should be placed in locations away from direct winds and extremes in temperature. This will help maintain the environment and facilitate ideal growth conditions.

Rubykins Korean willow should be pruned twice each year. The first pruning should take place in early spring, around late March or early April, before new growth appears. Remove any damaged, dead, or overcrowded branches from the stem of the tree. It is important to make your cuts close to the main stem. Second pruning should take place in late summer, in late July or early August. Remove any shoots that have grown too long and any crossing branches. Make sure to only prune back to the nearest bud or lateral branch. This will help to promote fullness and keep the tree from becoming too dense.
