  • Maintenance advice : At the end of winter, prune to the desired size. Another pruning is possible in September for the perfectly shape plants. Shorten its thin shoots in order to maintain a regular, compact and dense shape. Light or no pruning if you wish to have a more free shape. The pruning can stop the flower and fruit production that are inconspicuous anyway.
