Watering

Fertilizing

Balanced feed monthly during active growth season

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 at 13-18°C in spring and summer

Growing

Prefers neutral to slightly acidic soil that does not dry out but will tolerate most soil types. Requires a sunny situation with shelter from cold drying winds
