Watering

Water young trees regularly; mature trees are drought-tolerant but prefer deep watering.

Fertilizing

Apply a tree fertilizer in early spring and again in late autumn.

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.
