Natal Plum thrives in bright, direct sunlight and prefers moderate temperatures. It can tolerate dry conditions but benefits from occasional watering. The plant does well in average humidity levels and should be protected from frost. Regular pruning helps maintain its shape and encourages new growth.मिट्टी
Carissa macrocarpa prefers sandy soil with good drainage. It can tolerate poor soil conditions but thrives in moderately fertile soil. Ensure the soil dries out almost completely between waterings to prevent root rot.उर्वरक
Use a balanced fertilizer with an N-P-K ratio of 10-10-10. Fertilize the plant during the growing season, typically every 4-6 weeks, to promote healthy growth and fruit production.पुनःरोपण
Repotting is generally not necessary for outdoor plants, but if grown in a container, repot every 2-3 years. Choose a slightly larger pot with good drainage and fresh sandy soil. Repot in the spring before the growing season begins.प्रचार
