Remember this tree is native to the tropics so it will be happiest with lots of heat and humidity. If you’re planting outside dig a hole twice the size of the root ball and just as deep. Place your tree backfill the soil and water to settle the roots. If you’re container-planting select a pot that’s about twice the width of your tree’s root ball and ensure it has drainage holes. Using an organic soil mix place your tree in the pot and position it in front of a sunny window. 2. Watering: Simply check your surrounding soil – if the soil is dry about 3 inches down water until it’s moist or until you see it draining from the pot for container-planted Jackfruit Trees. You may also mist indoor trees with a spray bottle since Jackfruits love humidity. 3. Fertilizing: Use an organic fertilizer preferably one made for tropical fruits. Fertilize in the spring and follow label instructions. | 5-6 ft. – Jackfruit Tree – Exotic Fruit with Many Uses – Including Vegetarian Cooking Outdoor Plant See how our 30 Day Happy Healthy Gaurantee compares to Garden Goods Direct Lowe’s.
