Basic Care Guide
Light
Full sun for 6+ hours daily. More sun means better flowering and fruit set.
Watering
Water 2-3 times per week in summer. Reduce to once a week in winter. Keep soil moist but not waterlogged.
Soil
Use well-draining soil rich in organic matter. A citrus or loamy mix works best.
Feeding & Pruning
Feed with citrus fertilizer every 2-3 months during growing season. Light pruning after fruiting maintains shape and airflow.
Plants are checked for healthy roots, foliage, and active growth before shipping from iplants.ae.
