Planting and care

Plant in well-drained soil, in full sun or part shade. Peking cotoneaster tolerates poor and clay soils. Dig a hole twice the size of the root ball, set the plant at the same level as in its container and firm well.

Water regularly during the first growing season, then cut back on water once established. This shrub is very drought tolerant and needs practically no care afterwards. A light pruning after flowering is enough to keep its shape.
