HOMEOWNER GROWING AND MAINTENANCE TIPS
The graft must be planted above soil level, and prune lateral suckers for best fruiting. If you look closely you will see the graft at the base of the stem. Do not allow the top plant to begin to root into the ground or you will loose the benefits of the grafting.
