Planting & Care
Choose a location with full to partial sunlight and dig a hole twice as wide as the root ball, keeping it equally deep. Position the tree so the root crown remains at soil level, then backfill and water thoroughly. Mulch around the base to retain moisture. Water when the top two inches of soil feel dry, using a slow, deep watering method. The tree requires no fertilizer for its first two years; afterward, apply nitrogen fertilizer in spring according to the tree's age. Prune during winter to remove dead branches and spent flower clusters to encourage blooms the following season.
