Mulching helps retain moisture and helps to stabilize the soil temperature as well as preventing the mound from settling before the roots get established. Requires full sun with at least 8 hours of direct sunlight favoring the morning sun. Trees tend to be small and bushy, and can easily be kept 7' - 10' with regular pruning. Makes an excellent container plant. The white flowers are very fragrant.
