Growing Information

This shrub thrives in full sun and prefers well-drained sandy or loamy soil. Moderate watering is recommended, allowing the soil to dry between waterings to prevent overwatering. Its hardiness makes it adaptable to colder climates within the specified zones, and its self-fruitful nature means it does not require another plant for fruit production.
