Growing Tips:
-
Gold Fruit Plants thrive in well-drained, loamy soil with a pH range between 6.0 to 7.5. They prefer sunny locations with ample sunlight exposure.
-
Provide regular watering, especially during the growing season, to keep the soil consistently moist but not waterlogged.
-
Prune the tree annually to remove dead or diseased branches, promote airflow, and maintain a desirable shape.
-
Apply organic fertilizer high in nitrogen, phosphorus, and potassium during the growing season to promote healthy growth and fruit production.
-
Protect young Gold Fruit Plants from frost and cold temperatures by covering them with blankets or using frost protection methods.

-
Carefully unpack the plant, ensuring no damage occurs to the leaves or roots.

After one month, consider transplanting the plant into a slightly larger pot or directly into the ground, if desired.
