Pflegehinweise
Lycium ferocissimum requires bright, direct sunlight for optimal growth. It thrives in moderate temperatures and prefers a subtropical climate. The plant should be watered when the soil dries out almost completely, and it benefits from moderate humidity levels. Regular pruning is necessary to maintain its shape and prevent it from becoming too invasive.Boden
