Growing Tips & Maintenace
- It grows best in a moist soil but will become more drought tolerant as it ages. Heavy pruning in the first few years will strengthen the plant and prevent it from becoming leggy. Fruits are edible, but must be cooked. Uncooked berries may induce illness.
Additional Notes
- All parts of the plant are toxic to pets and livestock. But because of the distinctive odour of the leaves, animals tend to avoid it.
