Growing Peve Minaret

Plant it in full sun. It prefers high water. It is hardy in USDA zones 4–9. Expect it to reach about 9.8 ft tall and 4.9 ft wide at maturity, in roughly 15 years.

When to plant Peve Minaret

Plant Peve Minaret in spring once the soil is workable, or by very early fall at the latest: an evergreen needs its roots down well before the ground freezes. For the middle of its hardy zones 4 to 9 range, that is March to May, or August on the fall side.

Month-by-month timing for your zone is on the planting calendar: for the middle of its range, start with zone 6 in March.
