Growing Guide

Step 1: Sow fresh seeds ½–1 inch deep in a warm, well-drained seed-starting mix soon after harvesting, as viability declines during storage.
Step 2: Keep the growing medium consistently moist but not waterlogged and maintain temperatures of 75–85°F (24–29°C).
Step 3: Transplant seedlings into larger containers or directly into the landscape after they develop a strong root system.
Step 4: Plant in full sun, water regularly during establishment, and protect young trees from frost for healthy growth and future fruit production.
