Planting & Care

1. Planting: Plant your Vitex in an area that receives full sun (6 to 8 hours of sunlight daily). Well-drained soil is also best for the Vitex Chaste.

Dig your hole about twice as wide as the rootball, place your tree, and backfill the surrounding soil. Once you've finished planting, water the surrounding area and mulch to conserve moisture.

2. Watering: Water once or twice weekly, or simply check your tree's surrounding soil. It's time to water your tree once the soil is dry around 2 or 3 inches down.

3. Fertilizing: Feed with an all-purpose fertilizer once a year in the spring.

4. Pruning: Prune in the late winter for shaping, and remove any dead or broken branches throughout the year.
