Plant in a location with partial shade, protecting it from harsh afternoon sun. Ensure the soil is well-draining, even though it tolerates clay. Water regularly, especially when young, to establish a strong root system. Prune lightly to shape the tree and remove any dead or crossing branches. It is generally a low-maintenance tree once established.
