Where to Site Your Elaeagnus Ebbingei Pleached Standard
The Elaeagnus Ebbingei Pleached Standard thrives best in a location that receives full sun to partial shade. It prefers well-drained, nutrient-rich soil to ensure optimal growth and to prevent waterlogging, which can negatively affect the roots. Regular watering is important, especially during dry periods, to keep the foliage healthy and vibrant. This pleached standard is ideal for creating formal hedges, decorative screens, or adding a touch of sophistication to various garden settings.
Growth and Pruning
Typically, the Elaeagnus Ebbingei Pleached Standard grows to a height of approximately 6-8 feet, with a similarly expansive canopy. To maintain its elegant pleached shape, regular pruning and careful maintenance are essential. Trim the topiary to preserve its neat, formal appearance and remove any weak, dead, or damaged branches. The best time for a thorough trim is late winter or early spring, with additional touch-ups needed throughout the growing season to ensure the canopy remains well-shaped and lush.
