Detailed information on plant care
โญ Growing conditions
lighting
Very flexible! - Full sun to partial shade. Prefers at least 6 hours of light per day for optimal growth, but will do well with less.
Irrigation
First year: Regular! - Water 2-3 times a week until established. After that - once a week in summer, less in winter. Relatively drought tolerant but do not let it dry out completely.
ground
Prefers moist, well-drained soil. Grows in any type of soil - sandy, clay, even slightly alkaline. The most important thing: good drainage!
resistance
Resistant to extreme cold (up to -40ยฐC!) and Israeli heat. Resistant to air pollution and winds. Perfect for the Israeli climate.
Pruning
Prune in spring or late summer. Shape as needed - maintains columnar shape. Do not prune into old wood (will not regrow from brown wood).
๐ง Common problems and solutions
๐ค Browning from the inside
How to identify: Brown needles inside the plant
Solution: Natural! The inner needles are replaced. Shake occasionally to remove the dry needles.
๐ General browning
How to identify: The entire plant is brown.
Solution: Usually a lack of water or poor drainage. Check irrigation and make sure there is no flooding.
๐ Spider mite
How to identify: Thin spider webs, yellowish needles
Solution: Spray with pressurized water or treat with diluted dish soap. Maintains moisture
โ๏ธ Cold/Snow Damage
How to identify: Broken or bent branches
Solution: Shake heavy snow off branches. Tie up loose branches before winter.

๐ Note on safety
The plant contains essential oils that may cause stomach discomfort if chewed in large quantities. It is recommended to keep away from pets that tend to chew plants, but it is not life-threatening - the symptoms are unpleasant but transient.
๐ก Pro tip
For a perfect hedge - plant 60-80 cm apart from each plant. This way you will get a continuous green wall within 2-3 years. Important: Dig a hole twice as large as the root ball and water well in the first year. This is the most important investment!
