Water: Native to temperate regions, bottlebrush buckeye prefers moist soils and consistent hydration, requiring watering every two weeks. It exhibits moderate drought tolerance. As an outdoor plant, mulching is beneficial for retaining moisture and supporting growth during the active growing season.
Fertilize: For optimal growth, bottlebrush buckeye requires early spring fertilization with a balanced slow-release fertilizer to encourage strong roots and lush foliage. Reduce feeding during dormancy and ensure the ground is moist before fertilizing to protect the root system for vigorous growth and splendid flowering.
Pruning: Bottlebrush buckeye thrives with early spring pruning to remove damaged branches, enhancing air circulation and promoting growth. Avoid pruning after the growing season begins to protect flower production. Regular care prevents disease and pests, ensuring bottlebrush buckeye's health and aesthetic appeal.
Propagation: Bottlebrush buckeye thrives with showy summer blossoms and propagates mainly by seed. Soak seeds for 24 hours in warm water before sowing in well-draining soil. Maintain consistent moisture for slow germination. Once seedlings are ready, transplant to provide sufficient space for bottlebrush buckeye's mature size.
