Well-draining sandy soil with added organic matter for moisture retention. Good drainage is essential for Fries & Fries 1356 to prevent waterlogging, which leads to root rot and fungal issues.

Feed Fries & Fries 1356 every 6 months during the growing season with a balanced, slow-release fertilizer at the rate on the label. Established trees in good soil often need little extra feeding, so let weak growth or pale foliage guide you.

Stop feeding by late summer so new growth can harden before winter.

Prune Fries & Fries 1356 while it is dormant in late winter: first remove dead, damaged and crossing branches, then thin lightly for shape.

If it flowers in spring, prune right after flowering instead so you don't remove next year's buds. Never take off more than about a quarter of the tree in one year.
