Vigorous upright growth. Eventual height and spread: 1.5m. Cropping season: August-September.

Planting:
Soak the root-ball before planting. Plant in a hole twice the diameter of the root-ball or pot. Mix an organic soil improver and general fertiliser with the infill soil. Water regularly with lime-free water until established.
