Essential Care Guide for Indian Climates

Sunlight Needs

• Sunlight: Requires full and direct sunlight, needing at least 6-8 hours of sun per day for optimal growth and fruit development.

Watering and Soil

• Soil: Plant in well-draining soil. The tree can tolerate various soil types but prefers a rich, loamy mix.
• Watering: Water regularly and deeply during the growing season, especially for container-grown plants and during dry spells. Allow the topsoil to dry out slightly between watering.

The secure paper core packing method is utilized for shipping, ensuring the plant remains protected and well-ventilated during transit.
