Provide well-drained, enriched, slightly acidic soil. Avoid harsh afternoon sun in hot summer areas. Water deeply and regularly during first growing season to establish an extensive root system; reduce frequency when established. Apply a thick layer of mulch to keep root zone cool and conserve moisture. Fertilize when new growth begins in spring.
