Planting and Care Instructions

To ensure optimal growth, plant your Methley Plum Tree in full sun where it can receive at least 6 hours of direct sunlight daily. The tree prefers well-draining soil rich in organic matter. Water moderately to keep the soil moist but avoid overwatering to prevent root rot.
