Nutritious and delicious fruit. Easy to grow in sun. Loves Florida heat. Lasts 3-5 years. Can be planted in our native sandy soil but you'll get more fruit if you give it more nutr ition. We will top dress with homemade compost a few times a year. We also put food scraps at the base and cover with mulch. Also likes frequent water but does not like soil that stays moist. This is an unknown variety. Seeds are from our friend Albert Risemberg whose tree produces exceptionally sweet fruit within minimal musky flavor. He calls it "the good kind." Grown Organically from seed in our nursery. 1 Galllon or 3 Gallon pot Full Sun or dappled shade Plant All year (protect from frost) Show more
