Planting & styling guide

- Prepare a draining planting area or adequately sized separate planter.
- Move by supporting the root ball; keep the root collar at its existing level.
- Water the root ball and surrounding soil, then monitor establishment.
Care in Hong Kong
- EstablishmentA large tree still needs root-zone checks after planting.
- ShapingRemove crossing or damaged branches rather than repeatedly clipping the surface.
- FloweringAllow shoots time to mature between pruning sessions.

Frequently asked questions
Osmanthus Tree
Is a decorative pot included?
No. This listing specifies a soil root ball without a pot; plan ground planting or a suitable separate planter.
Will it be fragrant all year?
The fragrance comes from flowers. A leafy tree outside flowering periods will not give the same scent.
Can I trim it into a tight ball every month?
Frequent shearing can remove potential flowering growth. Shape selectively after flowering.
What should be checked before delivery?
The selected height, root-ball space, access route and final planting position—not just the doorway height.
