Yearly Care Instructions- Plant in a location with partial shade to protect from intense afternoon sun, especially in hotter climates. Ensure the soil remains consistently moist but well-drained. Mulching around the base helps retain moisture and regulate soil temperature. Regularly monitor for pests and diseases,

Trimming Instructions- Prune during late winter or early spring to remove any dead or damaged branches and to maintain the desired shape. Avoid heavy pruning, as this can stress the tree and diminish its natural form.

Fertilization Instructions- Apply a balanced, slow-release fertilizer in early spring before new growth begins. Avoid over-fertilizing, as excessive nutrients can lead to weak, leggy growth.

Fertilizer Recommendation- Tree-tone

Possible Issues- Aphids, scale insects, and verticillium wilt
