Use and Care Manual

PLANTING CARE:
This tree grows best in moist, richer soils that are acid or neutral. This tough and vigorous tree is very
adaptable, and it grows well in most ordinary garden conditions. Water it regularly and deeply for the
first few seasons, but once established it will tolerate ordinary summer dryness. If you have very alkaline
soil, a tree like a Sycamore could be a better choice. It is rarely affected by pests or diseases, and it
needs no special pruning – it will develop a lovely upright, spreading crown all by itself. Remove lower
branches at the trunk if you need room to pass underneath, and then you will also be able to admire the
beautiful bark of this tree.
