Cultivation Advice

Outdoors in all seasons. In summer, if you live in a hot region, prefer an eastern exposure with morning sun and afternoon shade.

Abundant during hot weather (every day), the rest of the time water when the top of the substrate is dry. Do not let the root ball dry out and avoid watering the leaves.

Fresh soils rich in organic matter. It is best to repot in the fall every 2 years

To purify the structure of the Serviceberry, remove branches that cross each other, are too spindly (too long) or obstruct the center of the clumps. Prune right after flowering. Anticipate and cut off unsightly and inelegant epicormic regrowth (that appears along shortened branches or trunk). Remove the branches directly at their base or at the base of the anterior branch.

May to October every 2 months (NPK 12/12/17 complete blue fertilizer)
