3. Minimal Watering:

   • 'Lemon Ball' prefers dry to medium-moisture conditions. Water sparingly, allowing the soil to dry out between watering sessions. Overwatering can lead to root rot, so moderation is key.

4. Occasional Pruning:

   • Prune the plant in the early spring to remove any dead or damaged growth. This not only maintains a tidy appearance but also stimulates new growth.

5. Winter Hardiness:

   • 'Lemon Ball' is generally hardy and can withstand winter temperatures. However, providing a layer of mulch around the base of the plant can offer additional protection in colder climates.
