Aspect: Katrinus grows in full sun and in 50% shade. It is suited to protected coastal planting. It grows well in inland climates where it can handle cold and frost to -7c with little leaf burn.

Soil Types: It is suited to a wide range of soils from sandy loam, clay loam and heavy clay soils.

Mulch Type: Use well composted, processed mulch. We have noted that in humid coastal regions the use of course mulch has proven to be best.
