Mahonia Media Evergreen

Light: Mahonia x media prefers partial shade to full shade. It can tolerate some sun but prefers a location with dappled shade or morning sun and afternoon shade

Water: Water the plant deeply once a week during the growing season, and reduce watering in the winter when the plant is dormant. Avoid overwatering, as this can lead to root rot.

Soil: Mahonia x media prefers moist, well-drained soil that is rich in organic matter. It can tolerate a range of soil types, including clay, loam, and sandy soils, but the soil must be well-draining. Fertilizer: Fertilize Mahonia x media in the spring with a slow-release fertilizer to encourage healthy growth. Avoid using high-nitrogen fertilizers, as these can promote leaf growth at the expense of flowers. Pruning: Prune the plant in the late winter or early spring to remove any damaged or diseased branches and to shape the plant. Avoid pruning too much, as this can reduce the number of flowers.
