How to Grow and Care for Fine Line Buckthorn Shrub

Fine Line Buckthorn Shrub (Rhamnus frangula ‘Fine Line’) Growing Requirements

Hardiness zone 2-7 outdoors

Planting

It’s highly adaptable, but an adequate planting location is important for your Fine Line’s growth. When you’re ready to plant, choose an area with well-drained soil and full sun to partial shade (preferably an area that’s slightly shaded but receives 4 to 8 hours of sun each day). When it’s time to plant, dig a hole that’s twice the size of the shrub’s root ball, place your plant and backfill the soil, then water to settle the roots.

Watering

Water regularly during the first full growing season, about once per week. If you’re not sure when to water, simply check the soil about 2 to 3 inches down – if the soil is dry in this area, it’s time to water. After your Fine Line is established, it can thrive on rainfall alone.

Pruning

Pruning is seldom necessary for this variety, but if you’d like to shape it, trim it during the fall season.

Fertilizer

Apply a well-balanced, time-release fertilizer to your Buckthorn in the spring.
