Essential Care Guide for Indian Climates

Sunlight Needs

• Sunlight: Choose a location that receives full and direct sunlight (at least 6-8 hours a day) for optimal growth, flowering, and fruit production.

Watering and Soil

• Soil: Plant in rich, well-draining soil. It can adapt to many soil types but does not tolerate standing water or heavily waterlogged conditions.
• Watering: Water regularly and deeply, especially when the plant is young and during extended dry periods. Allow the top layer of soil to dry out between waterings.

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