Fertilizing

Balanced shrub or tree feed once each early spring

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, by softwood cuttings in summer, or by grafting in winter

Growing

Thrives in well-drained, loamy, acid to neutral soil; this species is more tolerant of dry soils than others in the genus. Provide shelter from cold drying winds
