A LITTLE LOCAL GROWING KNOW-HOW

Help your Simpson Stopper Tree feel at home.

Myrcianthes fragrans

01 · Sun requirements

Find its light

Full sun to partial shade. Acclimate nursery-grown foliage gradually to stronger sun.

02 · Indoor / outdoor

Make room, indoors or out

An outdoor landscape specimen. Plan for mature root and canopy space; it will outgrow a small balcony pot.

03 · Soil & amendments

Start with good soil

Choose a site with adequate rooting room and drainage. Backfill with the existing soil; use surface mulch kept away from the trunk. Base any fertilizer or pH amendment on a soil test.

04 · Water requirements

Water with care

Water regularly while roots establish. Once established in the ground, water deeply during prolonged dry weather and allow the upper soil to dry between soakings. Container plants need more frequent checks.

05 · Growing habit

Give it room to grow

Native, dense evergreen shrub or small tree, often 4–20 ft and sometimes taller. Can be trained as a hedge or branching tree.

06 · Zones & cold protection

Know your growing zone

Suitable for warm landscapes across zones 9b–11, subject to the site and cultivar. Protect new plants and container roots during unusual freezes.
