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 softwood cuttings

Growing

Best grown in moist, well-drained soil, preferably in a spot with afternoon shade. It will tolerate full sun, however with potential scorching of flowers. Don't let dry out.
