General Care
- Water daily during the summer, every other day during spring and fall, and no water in the winter.
- Remove suckers from the base, strip all buds from the column, thin out dense branches, and keep the center open during the growing season. Cut the bare branches back to 2-3 nodes in the winter.
- Apply organic or slow-release complete fertilizers used for citrus or avacodos (7-5-7, 8-8-8) two to three times during the growing season at the rate of 1cup/3cf of potting soil.
- Remove the support frame after one year, when stems are interlocked and overall form is achieved.
- Every 2-3 years, repot during the winter by removing 6 inches of the root ball all around and replacing the lost material with a mix of 1/3 peat moss, 1/3 fine fir bark and 1/3 coarse sand.
