Water regularly during the growing season, allowing the soil to dry slightly between waterings. Reduce watering significantly in winter. Ensure good drainage to prevent root rot, especially in container-grown plants.

Overwatering is a common issue to avoid.

Prune to shape the tree and remove dead or diseased branches. This can be done at any time of year, but late winter or early spring is ideal before new growth begins.

Heavy pruning is generally not required unless managing size.

Propagation is typically done from seeds, which require scarification and soaking before sowing. Cuttings can also be used, but success rates can be variable. Air layering is another option for increasing plants.

Repot young trees every 2-3 years in spring, or when root-bound. Use a well-draining potting mix. Mature trees may not need frequent repotting and can be left in larger containers for longer periods.

Ensure adequate drainage holes.
