Care

Planting & Growing
Provide a site with loose, well-drained soil. Water deeply and regularly during first few growing seasons to establish an extensive root system; reduce frequency, once established. Apply a general purpose fertilizer before new growth begins in early spring. Prune only as needed to shape.
