Pruning

Little pruning is needed. Remove diseased, damaged, crowded or crossing shoots and unwanted growth. Timing depends on the plant: generally late winter or early spring; plants prone to bleeding and deciduous magnolias need different timing, and deciduous azaleas and lilacs are pruned after flowering.

Propagation

Propagate by seed sown in autumn, or by softwood cuttings, with bottom heat, in early summer

Growing

Grow in moist but well drained, humus-rich acid soil with protection from midday sun and cold, drying winds
