Growing and Care Instructions
-
Fertilizing
Feed with a balanced, slow-release fertilizer (NPK 10-10-10) every 4–6 weeks during the growing season (spring and summer). Do not fertilize in winter months when the plant is in a state of dormancy, as fertilizer use in this season can result in excess salt buildup on the roots.
-
Watering
Water deeply when the top 2 inches of soil are dry to the touch. In general, watering once a week is sufficient; more frequent watering may be necessary for plants in hot climates or containers. Do not allow the plant to sit in waterlogged soil.
-
Light Requirements
Full sun to part shade. At least 4–6 hours of direct sun per day for best flowering. Full sun produces the fastest, densest growth.

Healthy, full, and worth recommending
I have filled my greenhouse with many kinds of tropical fruit trees over the years.
The trees I received from Everglades Farm were the healthiest, fullest, and best packed I have seen. They arrived with beautiful green leaves, strong branching, and much better packaging than other vendors I have tried.
I highly recommend Everglades Farm and was very impressed with the nursery.
Thank you so much!
