    I bought an Arctostaphylos Manzanita from the UBC Shop in the Park but I am not sure of how to care for it. Any information on the type of soil, fertilizing, watering, location etc would be appreciated.

    Thank you, Littletreetoo

    Well-drained, sandy acidic soil, with full sun.

    Michael,

    What about fertilizing? What type?

    Thanks, Littletreetoo

    Probably not needed. Acidic may not be needed either.
