š¦ WHAT YOU WILL RECEIVE
You will receive one live Peanut Butter Fruit Tree in a 3-gallon pot, similar to the pictures. Each plant is unique, so height, branching, foliage density, and overall appearance may vary.
āļø LIGHT
Full sun is ideal for vigorous growth and may support better fruit production. The plant can tolerate partial shade, although growth and fruiting may be reduced.
š§ WATERING
Keep the soil evenly moist while the plant establishes, but avoid waterlogged conditions. Water when the upper layer of soil begins to dry, adjusting frequency for heat, rainfall, and container size.
šŖ“ SOIL
Use fertile, well-draining soil. A quality potting mix for tropical fruit trees is suitable for container growing. Good drainage is important to help prevent root problems.
š”ļø TEMPERATURE & HUMIDITY
This tropical plant prefers warm conditions and moderate to high humidity. It is sensitive to frost and prolonged cold. Protect young plants during cold spells and move container-grown plants to a sheltered location when needed.
