Full sun to part shade suits this species. Plant in moist, well-drained, fertile soil. Hardy USDA Zone 6 to 9. Suckers freely from roots, site where colonies are welcome. Generally trouble-free.
For a Pacific Northwest native counterpart in scale and bloom, consider Amelanchier alnifolia (Saskatoon / Western Serviceberry) for white spring flowers and edible blue berries, or Cornus nuttallii (Pacific Dogwood) for show-stopping spring bracts in light shade.
