Water regularly once established, allowing the soil to dry out slightly between waterings. Young plants require more consistent moisture.

Ensure good drainage to prevent waterlogged roots, especially during cooler months. Reduce watering in winter.

Prune to shape and remove dead, damaged, or crossing branches. This can be done in late winter or early spring before new growth begins.

Minimal pruning is usually required for established trees, focusing on maintaining structure and health.

Propagate from seeds sown in autumn or spring, or by semi-hardwood cuttings taken in summer. Seeds may require stratification. Cuttings should be treated with rooting hormone and kept in a humid environment.

Repot young plants every 2-3 years in spring, or when root-bound. Use a well-draining potting mix. Established trees in the ground typically do not require repotting.

Ensure the new pot is only slightly larger than the current one.
