#ProPlantTips for Care

You'll enjoy the most fruit with a planting site in full sun. However, this hardy vine does fruit in partial shade with at least four hours of sunlight a day.

Add Nature Hills Root Booster while planting for the life-long support of the shallow, fibrous roots. Mulch to a depth of three inches, but pull it back away from the trunk.

Provide even moisture during fruit production. Water consistently in the absence of rainfall.

Prune to shape in late winter when the vines are still dormant. Remove woody vegetative canes that will cast shade on the developing flower buds.

In June, do a second pruning to open and thin the canopy for increased sunlight and air circulation. The goal is a full-sized harvest of delectable fruit on second-year canes.

Prune first-year shoots off the trunk, and remove any suckers that clutter the base of your plants.
