Watering: Keep the growing medium consistently moist but not waterlogged. Avoid allowing the root ball to dry out completely.

Temperature: This tropical plant prefers warm conditions and is sensitive to cold. Protect it from frost and prolonged low temperatures.

Humidity: Moderate to high humidity can help support healthy growth, particularly in dry indoor or sheltered environments.

Fertilizer: Use a fertilizer appropriate for acid-loving plants, following label directions and avoiding excessive application.

Fruiting: Flowering and fruit production depend on maturity, light, temperature, pollination, soil conditions, and overall plant health. A young or recently shipped plant may need time to settle in before producing fruit.
