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 simple layering of suitable shoots in spring; grafting in late winter and chip budding can be carried out in late summer

Growing

Grow in moderately fertile, moist but well-drained acid to neutral soil in full sun or partial shade in an open but not exposed site; will tolerate deep humus-rich soils over chalk
