Cultivation
Cultivation
Soil type: Prefers deep, acidic, well-drained soils; tolerates clay, loam, and sandy soils. Avoid high-lime or alkaline substrates.
Watering frequency: Moderate watering when young; drought-tolerant once established but thrives with consistent moisture.
Light exposure: Full sun is ideal; will tolerate light shade but may result in thinner canopy.
Temperature requirements: Hardy from -25°C to 35°C (−13°F to 95°F); suitable for temperate to warm climates.
Fertilization: Apply a balanced, slow-release fertilizer in spring for young trees; mature specimens often require little feeding.
Pruning: Minimal pruning needed; shape when young to ensure good structure. Remove dead or low branches in late winter.
Common pests: Generally pest-resistant; occasional issues with aphids, scale, or leaf miners, especially in urban environments.
Other care practices: Excellent for stormwater management and urban greening. Deep root system requires space; avoid planting too close to buildings or pavement.
