About This Product

Maki podocarpus， also known as buddhist pine， is an exceptional addition to any landscape， offering both beauty and versatility. This elegant evergreen shrub boasts dense， dark green foliage， adding a lush， sophisticated touch to gardens year-round. Its upright， narrow growth habit makes it perfect as a privacy screen， hedge， or striking specimen plant， fitting seamlessly into formal and casual garden designs. Maki podocarpus is also highly adaptable， thriving in various soil types and tolerating full sun and partial shade. Additionally， its low-maintenance nature and resistance to pests and diseases make it a practical choice for gardeners seeking a resilient， long-lasting plant that enhances the aesthetic appeal of their outdoor space. When planting， choose a location with enough space for the shrub to grow. Dig a hole twice as wide and equally deep as the root ball. Carefully remove the shrub from its container to avoid damaging the roots. Place it in the hole， ensuring the root ball's top is level with or slightly above the ground surface. Backfill the hole with soil， gently firming it around the roots. To help your maki podocarpus establish， water it regularly， keeping the soil moist but not waterlogged， especially during the first few months. Adding a layer of mulch around the base can help retain moisture and suppress weeds. Regular pruning is also essential. Prune in late winter or early spring before new growth starts.
