Clusia

The Clusia is the perfect evergreen shrub for creating your very own privacy hedge. This low-maintenance plant is drought-tolerant and resistant to diseases and pests! Plus, it has stunning green leaves with a leathery look and teardrop shape. Grow yours today!

1. Planting: Plant your clusia in full sun to part shade, in a spot with 4-8 hours of sunlight per day, in well-draining soil. For a privacy hedge, plant your clusia about 5 feet apart. Clusia will also thrive in a pot, either indoors or on a patio. 

2. Watering: Keep the soil moist but not waterlogged. Water when the top two inches of soil are dry. Clusia can endure periods of less frequent watering, although regular irrigation will help them grow fuller. They like humidity, so mist them regularly if kept indoors with air conditioning.

3. Fertilizing:  Use a balanced fertilizer 3 times a year in spring, summer, and fall. 

4. Pruning: You can prune once in spring and let your clusia grow naturally, or trim it more frequently to maintain its shape. Avoid cutting through foliage and only trim branches.
