How do you grow gray alder?
To grow gray alder, select a sunny location with moist, well-drained soil. Plant seeds or saplings in early spring or fall, spacing them about 15 feet apart. Water regularly to keep the soil consistently damp but not waterlogged. Apply mulch to conserve moisture and reduce weeds. Prune in late winter to maintain shape and promote airflow. No fertilization is typically necessary, as gray alder can fix nitrogen in the soil.
