Watering, pruning, propagation, and repotting details from plant data
Provide consistent moisture, particularly when young and during dry spells. Allow the top few centimeters of soil to dry out between waterings.
Prune in late winter or early spring to remove dead, damaged, or crossing branches. Minimal pruning is usually required to maintain its natural shape. Avoid heavy pruning as it can be sensitive.
Best propagated from seed sown in autumn or spring, or by grafting in late winter. Seed germination can be slow and may require stratification. Grafting is often used for specific cultivars.
As a tree, repotting is generally not applicable unless grown in a container. If container-grown, repot every 2-3 years in spring into a slightly larger pot with fresh potting mix.
