Tropical Fruit Discussion / Planting out Cambucá in full sun? Advice please . . .
« on: April 17, 2024, 02:06:55 AM »
Gentle Tropical Fruit Lovers,
How large / old / tall does Plinia edulis, i..e. cambucá, need to be before it is safe
to plant it out into a full-sun situation here in zone 9b?
Mine had slowed down in a 3 gal pot so I moved it up into a 5 gal pot and doing
that seems to have jump-started it into a big flush of new leaves.
It's about two feet tall now and I keep a saucer under its pot as a water reservoir
to allow it to drink freely. It tends to use up the water in its saucer in one day.
Any advice or suggestions welcomed.
