Essential Care Guide for Indian Climates

Sunlight and Climate Needs

• Sunlight: The Kinnow Orange tree is a sun-loving plant and requires full and direct sunlight (at least 6-8 hours a day) for robust growth and optimal fruit production.
• Climate: The plant is highly resilient and thrives in India's diverse subtropical and tropical conditions.

Watering and Soil

• Soil: Plant in a rich, fertile, and well-draining soil mix. Water retention is detrimental, so ensure the pot/site drains quickly.
• Watering: Water the plant regularly and deeply. Allow the top one to two inches of soil to dry out completely between waterings to prevent root rot.

The secure paper core packing method used for shipping plants helps in ventilating the plant during transit, ensuring you receive a healthy sapling of the genuine variety.
