I’ve been surprised at how little care it takes outside of keeping it out of cold and in shade. This one gets a 1-2 hours of morning/evening sunlight. This is in a pot that it’s outgrown and I can’t remember the last time I fertilized it. Sprouting seeds from a pod was the most economical way for me to get fresh seeds. If you do that clean them really well including taking off the thin skin between the fruit and the actual seed. Doing that increased germination and decreased seed rot for me.
