This tree is known for its dense, evergreen foliage and can grow to significant heights. It thrives in tropical regions with high humidity and consistent moisture.
Podocarpus neriifolius requires bright, indirect light and thrives in warm, humid conditions. It prefers consistent moisture and should be watered regularly to keep the soil wet. The tree does well in moderate temperatures and should be protected from cold drafts.

Snoeien
Pruning is necessary to maintain the shape and size of the tree. Remove any dead or damaged branches and trim back overgrown areas. Pruning is best done in the spring or early summer.
