2️⃣ Dig a Hole 🕳️: Dig a hole at least twice the size of the root ball to ensure proper root establishment and expansion.
3️⃣ Position the Plant 🌿: Place the tree in the hole, ensuring that the top of the root ball is level with the surrounding soil surface.
4️⃣ Backfill & Water 💧: Fill the hole with soil, pressing gently to remove air pockets, and water thoroughly to settle the roots.

Ongoing Care & Maintenance

Watering 💧: Keep the soil consistently moist during the first year of planting. Once established, water deeply once a week, especially during dry periods.
Pruning ✂️: Prune the tree annually to remove dead or damaged wood and to shape it for better airflow and fruit production.
