Planting & Care
Select a location with full sun exposure and well-draining soil; sandy loam is ideal, though this adaptable tree tolerates various soil types if drainage is adequate. Mix compost into native soil if drainage needs improvement. Water moderately, allowing the soil to dry somewhat between waterings, especially in cooler months. Prune regularly to encourage bushier growth and maximize leaf production—the tree responds enthusiastically to cutting and will emerge with even more vigorous foliage. In containers, provide a large pot with drainage holes and use quality potting mix, bringing the tree indoors in freezing climates during winter.
