Soak the roots in water for 1-2 hours before planting. Choose a location with well-draining soil and full sun to partial shade. Dig a hole large enough to accommodate the root system, place the plant so the crown is at or slightly above soil level, and backfill with soil. Water thoroughly after planting.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003eKeep the soil consistently moist during the establishment period. Mulch around the base to retain moisture and suppress weeds.
