Planting & Care
1. Planting: Plant in an area where it can receive full to partial sunlight, or 6 to 8 hours each day. Allow enough space between other trees, plants, or structures, and without too much shade.
2. Watering: For the first year after planting, water 1-3 inches of water every week, unless rainfall is consistent. Deep watering allows for the development of the roots.
3. Fertilizing: You should fertilize before new growth expands, or around early April spring to late summer. Don't apply fertilizer later than mid-July, as this will stimulate new growth late in the season.
4. Pruning: Corrective pruning may be needed to remove dead, diseased, or damaged branches. When pruning, make thinning cuts into healthy wood below the infected area.
