- 3-5 feet tall and 3-4 feet wide at maturity
- Grow in zones 5-7

Care: It's best to avoid pruning altogether, as pruning after bloom will remove the potential for the fruit to develop. Fertilize with Proven Winners Continuous Release Plant Food in spring.
Pollination: One male plant will pollinate 5-7 females; plants should be located within about 50'/15.24m of each other.
