Watering
Water regularly during dry periods; keep the soil moist but well-drained.
Fertilizing
Apply a balanced fertilizer in early spring before new growth appears.
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, softwood cuttings or grafting
Growing
Grow in moderately fertile, humus-rich, moist but well-drained soil in sun or light dappled shade; will grow in a wide range of soils but prefers acidic or neutral soil. See tree cultivation for further advice
