Planting and Care of Japonica Pieris

Question

What type of protection from sun, water, and wind does this bush need?

Answer 1

Japanese andromeda prefers a moist, well-draining, organic and slightly acidic soil. It prefers partial shade but will tolerate full sun (may require additional watering in these areas, however, to keep soil moist and cool). You will want to avoid harsh, windy areas too, so look for a sheltered location if wind is a factor.
