Fertilisation
From spring to fall, taking a break in summer.
Transplant
Every 2-3 years, at the beginning of spring bud break.
Substrate
Akadama 100% or mixed with volcanic clay (30% clay). It is a tree that likes organic matter and a slight acidity of the soil, so it can be mixed with blond peat.
Pruning
Structural pruning can be done in winter, when the tree is leafless and the result is easier to predict.
Pinching
Let the tree take out twigs and grow to form 10 leaves, at which point we cut leaving only the first two.
