1.SELECTING THE APPROPRIATE CONTAINER The container must be chosen as the first and most important stage. The roots of the plants must have room to stretch out and grow, thus you need a big container. A large container will also prevent efficient air ventilation. As we also discussed in a previous article. For optimum operation, the container needs drainage holes. This will stop your Juniper Wichita Blue's roots from starting to decay. A root ball should be placed in a container that is twice as wide and deep as it is deep.
2. PROPER WATERING Junipers are typically relatively simple to maintain. The plants must be placed in a well-lit area. Junipers do not like their soil to be damp because they are draught-tolerant trees. To avoid overwatering them, be careful.
3. THE SOIL MIX You must plant your Juniper Wichita Blue using a mixture of rich soilless mix if you want to grow it yourself but haven't bought a fully established one. You can also wish to add stones or gravel to the bottom third of the container. You have the choice. Subsequently, put it in a hole that is twice as large as the rootball. But not before you slightly spread and loosen the outside roots. After that, place it there and fill it with dirt. For a few weeks, water it two to three times a week.
