Planting & Care

Choose a sunny location with well-draining soil, or use a spacious container with drainage holes filled with quality potting mix. Water thoroughly at planting time and maintain consistent soil moisture throughout the growing season, adding mulch to conserve water. Apply balanced slow-release fertilizer in early spring and again in late spring. Once the tree establishes and begins fruiting, perform light dormant-season pruning to remove weak or excessively vigorous growth. Remember that cross-pollination is necessary for fruit production—plant a compatible variety nearby.
