Maintenance:

To ensure the health and beauty of Rhus typhina Laciniata, follow these maintenance tips:

1. Light Requirements: Plant in a location that receives full sun to partial shade. Rhus typhina Laciniata prefers at least 6 hours of direct sunlight per day for optimal growth and vibrant foliage color.

2. Soil Conditions: This tree adapts well to a variety of soil types, including clay, loam, or sandy soil. It is tolerant of both acidic and alkaline soils. Ensure good drainage to prevent waterlogging.
