How to grow your Robinia

These specimens grow well in full sun but sheltered from strong winds. They grow in poor soil and can tolerate dry conditions once they are established.

Once established they don’t require much maintenance, a general fertiliser in spring around the roots.

In late summer / early autumn a light prune of any damaged branches that have been caused and remove any suckers where necessary.
