Planting & Care

1. Planting: Choose a sunny location with well-draining soil, or plant in a container with citrus-friendly potting mix. Place in full sun (at least 68 hours daily). For outdoor planting, USDA zones 911 are best.

2. Watering: Keep soil consistently moist but never soggy. Water deeply once the top 23 inches of soil have dried. Container-grown plants may need more frequent watering, especially in hot weather.

3. Fertilization: Feed with a balanced citrus fertilizer every 68 weeks during the growing season. Reduce feeding in winter when growth slows, unless grown indoors with consistent warmth and light.

4. Pruning: Lightly prune after harvest to maintain a bushy, compact shape and encourage airflow. Remove any dead or crossing branches.

5. Pollination: This shrub is self-fertile, which means you will get fruit from only one plant.
