How To Grow ItPlant early in spring spaced 4’ apart in rows 10’ apart. Spread roots out in a downward direction in your hole leaving the main trunk above the soil. Water thoroughly. AFTER CARE: Annual pruning to remove the small branches near the base of the plant and any dead or injured branches is recommended. This promotes an upright vigorous bush that produces larger berries that tend to ripen faster.
