Best Practices for Planting & Care

  • Where to Plant: Choose a sunny spot with well-draining, lightly acidic soil (pH 5.5–6.5).
  • Watering: Keep soil evenly moist but not waterlogged. Jaboticabas thrive with regular watering.
  • Mulching: Apply hardwood mulch around the base to conserve moisture and suppress weeds.
  • Planting Method: Use the GreenDreams “High & Tight” method to ensure success. Watch our guide on YouTube →
  • Winter Care: Protect young trees from frost. Container trees can be brought indoors or into a greenhouse during cold snaps.

🪴 Container & Indoor Growing

  • Container Size: Start with 7–15 gallon containers for best success.
  • Indoor Tips: Keep in a bright location with at least 6 hours of sun or supplement with grow lights.
  • Climate Needs: Maintain temperatures between 65–85°F; humidity trays or misting can mimic tropical conditions.

⚠️ Cautions

  • Cold Sensitivity: Not suitable for prolonged freezes; requires protection in USDA zones below 9.
  • Pests: Generally hardy, but monitor for scale or aphids if grown indoors.

1. Shipping Stress: Transportation can be stressful for plants, particularly when they spend several days in a confined, dark environment. It’s common for plants to experience leaf drop during this period. Rest assured, most plants typically recover quickly and thrive with minimal aftercare. However, some may need extra attention, love, and care, requiring appropriate watering and exposure to gentle light post-unboxing.
 

2. Potential Physical Damage: Despite our dedicated efforts to ensure that your plants are securely packaged, they may incur damage during shipping and handling by UPS. Rest assured, our shipping team is committed to packing your selections with utmost care and precision to minimize any potential harm.

  • For significant box damage, please reach out to UPS within 30 days to initiate a claim.

  • For minor damages, such as a broken branch or stem, we advise allowing the plant time to recover and regenerate with proper care and attention.
     

3. Long-Distance Shipping Considerations: Orders shipped over long distances, particularly to the western US, may take 3 - 5 business days to arrive due to various factors, including agricultural inspections in Arizona, California, and Texas. Such extended transit times can be particularly challenging for tender, young plants, affecting their quality due to prolonged confinement.

  • We take additional measures during packaging to facilitate a swift recovery of the plants upon unboxing.

  • Initial extra care and attention might be required over the first few weeks post-transport.
     

For further guidance, kindly review our detailed policies on returns and refunds, as well as our comprehensive plant care guide. We appreciate your understanding and patience in nurturing your new plants.
