Planting & Care

Choose a location with full to partial sun and dig a hole twice as wide as the root ball but equally deep. Position the tree so the crown sits about one inch above soil level, then backfill and water thoroughly. Water when the top two inches of soil feel dry, typically twice weekly in summer. No fertilizer is needed for the first two years; afterward, apply nitrogen fertilizer in spring according to the tree's age. Deadhead spent flowers and fruit clusters to encourage abundant blooms the following season.
