Comments:
|
Needs partial shade and moist
conditions to thrive. A good urban tree under
irrigated or moist conditions. Benefits from laying
down mulch under entire drip line. Is susceptible to
witches broom dieback. Tools must be sterilized
between plants. Both a male and female plant must be
present in the landscape for berry production.
