Sunlight

Watering

  • Water thoroughly in the summer and reduce watering in the winter and rainy seasons.

Application of Fertilizer

  • During the main growing season feed the organic fertilizer once a month.

Pruning:

  • If the canopy becomes very dense the leaves should be thinned out in order to let light get in, prevent the inner twigs from dying and encourage back-budding.
