It grows best in full sun to partial shade and requires moderate watering, becoming drought tolerant once established. For reliable fruiting, it is recommended to plant more than one seedling or ensure the presence of both male and female trees. The fruit should be fully ripe and soft before consumption to enjoy its rich sweetness. While container growing is possible when young, long-term planting in the ground is ideal for healthy development.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003ch2\u003ePlant Condition Disclosure\u003c\/h2\u003e\n\n\u003cp\u003eLive plants may be shipped dormant, leafless, recently pruned, bare root, or partially defoliated depending on season, weather, and shipping requirements.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\n\u003cp\u003eNatural variation in size, branching, foliage density, color, root structure, and overall appearance should be expected.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\n\u003ch2\u003eImportant Note\u003c\/h2\u003e\n\n\u003cp\u003eYou will receive a live starter plant (seedling\/young plant).
