Plant Goshiki False Holly in well-drained soil with full sun to partial shade. Space plants 3-5 feet apart. Water regularly during the first growing season to establish a deep root system. Once established, water as needed, allowing the soil to dry between waterings. Fertilize in early spring with a balanced, slow-release fertilizer. Prune in late winter or early spring to maintain shape and remove dead or damaged branches. Protect from harsh winter winds.
