Watering Eastern hemlockTenere Umido
During this period of the year the the Eastern hemlock needs regular watering, which should be done letting the soil dry between one watering and the other; let’s irrigate every 2-3 weeks with about 2-3 buckets of water . We advise watering the young specimens, or the recently sheltered ones; the adult specimens usually are satisfied with rain water.

Exposure Eastern hemlockPosizione ombreggiata
Position the the Eastern hemlock in a place where it can enjoy a few hours of exposure to direct sunlight, but only during the coolest periods of the day. The the Eastern hemlock should be grown outdoors; it can bear very harsh temperatures without any problems, even many degrees below zero.With a particularly windy climate we suggest securing young trees to long solid stakes, to avoid that the wind could bare young and not very developed roots; specimens which are only a few years old might fear intense cold and wind.

Generalities Eastern hemlock
These plants develop like conifers. These plants have an erect, columnar development. The Eastern hemlock Is medium in size; in spring, summer, autumn, winter it assumes a green colouring. These are evergreen plants, which means they keep their leaves year round.

Treatments Eastern hemlock
Generally during this time of year we suggest a pre-emptive treatment with wide range insecticide and with a systemic fungicide, to prevent the attack from part of the aphids and the development of fungus diseases, often favoured by a mild and damp climate.

Soil Eastern hemlock
We suggest a pretty rich, quite soft, but not too drained, growing substratum.
