Growing Conditions & Care:

• Pruning: Best pruned in winter or early autumn after leaf drop to maintain a dense, compact habit and encourage more blooms.
• Fertilising: Responds well to a slow-release fertiliser applied in early spring.
• Sunlight: Thrives in full sun, which is necessary for prolific flowering and to prevent powdery mildew.
• Soil: Adaptable to various soil types, including clay, provided they are well-drained.

Uses In The Garden:

• Feature Tree: With a height typically reaching 2–4 meters, ‘New World’ and its similar cultivars are perfect as focal points in small-to-medium gardens or courtyards, offering a spectacular summer display of flowers.
• Privacy Screening/Hedging: Its naturally bushy, spreading habit makes it an excellent choice for a flowering screen or hedge to add privacy and colour along fence lines.
• Urban/Small Gardens: Due to its manageable size, drought tolerance, and resistance to powdery mildew, it is ideal for modern, smaller residential gardens, streetscapes, and urban planting.
• Container Planting: It can be grown in large containers on patios or balconies, providing movable color.
