This is not to be rushed. If over-fertilization is severe, the plant may just wilt and die. When looking at most fertilizers, they are described by three numbers on the bag. That is why we do not recommend planting in a hole any deeper than the soil line...

Slow-release fertilizer can help prevent rapid sucker growth that is vulnerable to diseases and insects. Removing the dead and dying limbs will minimize the possibility of diseases such as “dieback” and will also allow the plant to re-concentrate...

Try to avoid pruning in late fall as this will cause a flush of new growth that is not hardened off and could cause death of the plant. A general rule of thumb is to count to 5 for every one gallon of pot size.

Slow-release fertilizer can help prevent rapid sucker growth that is vulnerable to diseases and insects. Be careful with products such as miracle-grow as these products can burn newly planted plants when not used at the recommended rates.
