How to grow Jujube 'Li'

  • Full Sun

  • Low

A full sun position will ensure your plant thrives and remember to apply water fairly sparingly. Keep in mind when planting that Li is thought of as very hardy, so this plant will typically do well in a variety of different extremes of cold temperature.

Growing Li from seed

Try to ensure a gap of at least 17.83 feet (5.49 metres) when sowing to prevent overcrowding your seedlings.

Transplanting Li

Jujube trees need to be spaced far apart from each other because they need maximum sunlight to fruit.

As Li is very hardy, ensure temperatures are mild enough to plant out - wait until after your last frost date to be on the safe side.
