Care Instructions for South Florida:

Sunlight Requirements:
Thrives in full sun. Ensure the tree receives at least 6–8 hours of direct sunlight daily for optimal fruiting and growth.

Watering:
Moderate watering is needed, especially during dry spells. Water deeply but infrequently, allowing the top few inches of soil to dry out between watering. Overwatering can lead to root rot.

Soil Preferences:
Prefers well-drained sandy loam enriched with organic matter. Tolerates a variety of soil types as long as drainage is good. Slightly acidic to neutral pH is ideal.

Fertilization:
Feed with a balanced slow-release fruit tree fertilizer three times annually (spring, summer, and fall). Supplement with micronutrients, especially magnesium and iron, to encourage healthy foliage and fruit production.

Pruning and Maintenance:
Prune lightly after harvest to shape the canopy and remove dead or crossing branches. Regular pruning encourages better airflow and increases fruit yield.

Pests and Diseases:
Generally hardy, though may occasionally attract fruit flies, aphids, or scale insects. Use organic insecticidal soap or neem oil for control. Maintain good hygiene and monitor regularly.
