Growing and Maintenance Tips
'Mr Bowling Ball' is easy to grow and adaptable to a wide range of soil conditions. Amend the soil by adding compost and ensure that it receives regular watering because cedars need an evenly moist soil. Pruning is seldom necessary to keep the rounded shape. It will welcome protection from the hot afternoon sun but too much shade will cause the foliage to be less dense. Despite the severe winter of 2014 our newly planted specimen came through the winter with no burning or dieback.
