I like light, but I don't like some shadows either. It likes to grow in moist and fertile soil, but it can also grow and bear fruit under dry and barren site conditions, but the growth situation is very different, with many fallen flowers and small fruits. The suitable soil is red soil or yellow-red latosol, and the surface layer is sandy loam over 5-20 cm.
