Watering: Regular watering is essential, especially in the first few years. Ensure the soil remains moist but not waterlogged.
Mulching: Apply mulch around the base of the tree to retain moisture and suppress weeds.
Pruning: Prune young trees to shape them and remove any damaged or dead branches. Prune older trees to maintain structure and remove any crossing branches.
