Trim in early spring, just before bud break. Allow to grow out and trim once or twice more through the season.

Avoid cutting into thick stems; prune to shape only.

Yellowing on leaf margin may indicate a micronutrient deficiency; use fertilizers that contain micronutrients to avoid.

Spider mites, scale, and aphids are most common pests – treat according to your IPM protocol.

Use good sanitation to eliminate spread of leaf spots and fungal diseases.
