Mirror Bush Care Guide: Growing Tips for Coprosma repens
Mirror Bush (Coprosma repens) is a versatile and visually stunning evergreen shrub known for its glossy, variegated foliage. Follow these care instructions to ensure your Mirror Bush thrives:
-
Light Requirements: Mirror Bush prefers full sun to partial shade. Place it in a location where it receives at least 4-6 hours of direct sunlight per day for optimal growth and vibrant foliage color.
-
Soil Conditions: Ensure well-draining soil to prevent waterlogging, which can lead to root rot. A mixture of loamy soil with good organic matter content is ideal. Mirror Bush is adaptable to various soil types, including sandy or clay soils.
-
Watering: Once established, Mirror Bush is drought-tolerant and requires minimal watering. However, water newly planted shrubs regularly to help establish roots. Allow the soil to dry out slightly between waterings to prevent overwatering.
-
Fertilization: Apply a balanced, slow-release fertilizer in spring to promote healthy growth and foliage color. Follow the manufacturer’s instructions for dosage and application methods.
