Planting

Plant in moist, well-drained soil with good fertility. Choose a location with partial shade, especially in hotter climates. Avoid planting in waterlogged or compacted soils. Water newly planted trees regularly, especially during dry spells. Apply a layer of mulch around the base of the tree to retain moisture and suppress weed growth. Prune to remove dead or diseased branches during the dormant season.

Care

Regular watering during the establishment period is essential. Pruning may be necessary to maintain shape and remove dead or damaged branches.
