Romeo Cleyera Care

The soil for your Romeo Cleyera needs to be well drained and moist. Water needs are average. Plant in full sun to part shade. It is tolerant to all Ph levels and varying soil types. Fertilize early in the spring. Be sure to clear away any dead or fallen foliage as necessary. Pruning is not necessary, however, trimming to shape can be done in early spring before any new growth appears. Water regularly for its first growing season to help develop strong roots. Once established it will be tolerant to heat and dry spells.

Romeo Cleyera Spacing

For a more seamless appearance for privacy hedges, or border planting space four feet, center on center. For a less seamless appearance for uses such as accent planting, space seven feet, center on center.
