🌿 Care Tips
☀️ Light:
Requires full sun for optimal growth and nut development.
Ensure a location with at least 6–8 hours of sunlight daily.
🌱 Soil:
Prefers well-drained, deep loamy soil, with a neutral to slightly alkaline pH (6.5–7.5).
Avoid waterlogged or compacted soil.
💧 Watering:
Water regularly in the first few years to establish.
Mature trees are moderately drought-tolerant but benefit from watering in prolonged dry spells, particularly in summer.
