Essential Care Guide for Indian Climates

Sunlight and Climate Needs

As a tropical plant, the Custard Apple tree requires ample heat and light to flourish and produce fruit.

• Sunlight: Requires full and direct sunlight (at least 6-8 hours a day) for optimal growth and heavy fruiting. It can tolerate partial sun but performs best in direct light.
• Air Circulation: Ensure the plant is placed in a location with good air movement, which is important for tropical plants.

Watering and Soil

Proper soil and irrigation management are vital for a healthy Custard Apple plant.

• Soil: Plant in rich, well-draining soil. A loamy or sandy soil composition is highly suitable.
• Watering: Water regularly and deeply, particularly during the active growing, flowering, and fruiting phases. Allow the topsoil to dry out slightly between waterings, as the plant is sensitive to waterlogging.
• Fertilization: Use a balanced fertilizer during the main growing seasons (typically spring and summer) to support robust leaf and fruit development.

The secure paper core packing method used for shipping ensures the plant is protected and well-ventilated during transit, guaranteeing you receive a healthy, genuine variety plant upon arrival.
