Homeowner Growing and Maintenance Tips:
Prefers deep, loamy, moderately fertile, slightly acidic, medium moisture, well-drained soil and full sun. Tolerates average garden soil but avoid unamended heavy clay soils that drain poorly. More than one variety should be located nearby for best pollination and fruit production. Pruning can be done in late winter or early spring and summer. We recommend you do your research as to best pruning practices. Plants can be fertilized in early spring and late summer/early fall.
