Location
Keep outside all year. Likes full sun but providing some shade during summer will prevent sun scorched leaves.
Temperature
Though hardy they may need protection during prolonged periods of cold weather. Bringing them into an unheated greenhouse is enough protection.
Watering
Keep watered during the growing season but allow to dry between watering.
Pruning
Prune in late spring after flowering.
Repotting
Check if your tree needs repotting every couple of years.
Feeding
Feed with high nitrogen feed after flowering and a low nitrogen feed in mid and late summer.
