PLANTING & CARE 🌱

• 🌤 Climate & Light: Needs warm, humid, frost‑free conditions; provide bright light with partial shade in very hot, dry zones to protect tender leaves.

• 🪴 Soil: Prefers deep, rich, slightly acidic, well‑draining soil; mix garden soil with plenty of compost, cocopeat, and a bit of sand for good aeration.

• 💧 Watering: Keep soil consistently moist but never waterlogged; young plants are sensitive to drying out, so regular, light watering is better than infrequent soaking.

• 🌿 Mulching: Use leaf mulch or coco chips around the base to conserve moisture and maintain cool soil; keep mulch slightly away from the stem.

• 🧴 Feeding: Apply organic compost and a balanced fruit‑tree fertilizer 2–3 times a year to support steady growth and future fruiting.

• 🛡 Protection: Shelter young plants from strong afternoon sun, salty winds, and any chance of frost; in borderline climates, grow in a large pot that can be shifted to a protected spot.
