Climate

Warmer climate, can tolerate hot summer temperatures. It can grow in both humid and dry climates. Will tolerate a few degrees of frost, will recover from some leaf damage. Young plants are very frost tender.

Will grow best in fertile, moist deep loams but are tolerant of other soil types including clay or sand-gravel soils but will need good drainage in all soil conditions. Will tolerate a wide pH range

Planting

Young trees, in particular, need extra protection from freezing temperatures. Allow 5-8m between trees.

Fertiliser

Young trees are nutrient hungry so will need regular applications of a balanced, complete fertiliser.

Pruning

Trimming the main stems at the end will encourage new lateral growth and produce more fruit.
