Planting and Care
This tree prefers full sun and thrives in well-draining soil. Water regularly during its early growth, but reduce as the tree matures and develops drought tolerance. Apply a balanced fertilizer once a year for healthy fruit yield. Prune occasionally to improve air circulation and structure. Mulching helps retain soil moisture, especially during dry seasons.
