Planting & Care

Choose a sunny location with full sun exposure and plant in well-draining soil, digging a hole twice the width of the root ball. For container growing, select a pot double the size of the shipped container with adequate drainage holes. Water consistently to keep soil moist but not soggy—check that the top inch has dried before watering again, and increase frequency during hot weather. Apply balanced fertilizer (such as 12-12-12) in spring, summer, and fall. Prune only during dormancy in winter or early spring to maintain shape and encourage productivity.
