How To Grow Toona

• Soil: Plant in well-drained soil. While it can tolerate poorer soils, well-fertilized soil will promote better growth and more abundant foliage.
• Light: Toona prefers full sun for optimal growth and flowering. It can tolerate partial shade, but flowering may be reduced in lower light conditions.
• Watering: Regular watering is essential during the first few years to establish a strong root system. Once established, it is relatively drought-tolerant but benefits from watering during prolonged dry periods.
• Pruning: Prune in late winter or early spring to maintain shape and remove any dead or damaged branches. Regular light pruning can encourage bushier growth and better flowering.
