Essential Care Guide for Indian Climates

Sunlight and Climate Needs

As a highly resilient and sun-loving species, the Shami plant thrives with ample sunlight.

• Sunlight: Prefers full, direct sunlight for optimal growth (at least 6-8 hours a day).
• Hardiness: Known to be exceptionally hardy and drought-tolerant once established.

Watering and Soil

Due to its drought-tolerant nature, care should be taken to avoid overwatering.

• Soil: Plant in well-draining, slightly sandy soil. It can tolerate a wide range of soil types.
• Watering: Water young and potted plants regularly until established. Reduce watering frequency significantly for established plants, allowing the soil to dry out completely 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 plant.
