LIVE PLANT Moringa oleifera 2-3 ft tall - miracle tree - horseradish tree

Description: The plant I ship is 2-3 ft tall. Moringa are fast-growing, deciduous trees that are native to India and Bangladesh. Moringa trees are commonly also called the drumstick tree, horseradish tree, or ben oil tree. Moringa trees grow best in tropical conditions and require six to eight hours of full sunlight, slightly acidic to neutral soil, and temperatures between 77 and 95. Indigenous people have used them for their nutritious and medicinal qualities and are also called the "miracle tree. All parts of the tree are edible, from seeds to foliage to roots, and are a source of nutrients and antioxidants, similar to spinach. Moringa CareHere are the main care requirements for growing a moringa tree: Plant the tree in the spring to take full advantage of the entire growing season.Prefers slightly acidic, loamy, well-drained soil.Give full sun and moist but not soggy soil; it's heat and drought-resistant.Can grow in containers as long as the container is at least 30 inches in diameter. Move moringa trees indoors during cold weather. LightA bright, sunny location that receives direct sunlight for most of the day is best for moringa trees. Growth may be stunted if the plants do not receive enough light. SoilMoringa trees are adaptable to a wide range of soils and can survive in poor soils if needed. However, they thrive when grown in well-draining, sandy soils. The plants are sensitive to root rot, so they will not flourish in overly compacted soil or soil with too much moisture. WaterKeep the soil of moringa plants consistently moist but not wet. Moringa plants do not tolerate "wet feet" and are sensitive to overwatering. Established moringa plants are drought-tolerant, but young plants need more consistent moisture to encourage vigorous growth. Infrequent, deep watering is better than frequent, light watering when watering moringa plants. Temperature and HumidityMoringa grows best in temperatures between 77 and 95 degrees Fahrenheit, although they can tolerate extreme temperatures as high as 118 degrees Fahrenheit as long as they are in afternoon shade. These plants do not tolerate cold temperatures well, although they can withstand a light frost. Moringa plants will grow outdoors year-round in USDA zones 10 and 11 and can be grown outdoors for part of the year in any region that experiences warm summers. FertilizerAdd compost to the soil when planting to provide needed nutrients. Moringa plants benefit from a light application of a general, all-purpose fertilizer to help support growth. Once established, moringa plants do not require regular fertilization. However, they benefit from having their topsoil regularly amended with compost or manure. Fertilizer that I include as an option is an excellent choice for professional growers or nurseries if you grow plant in a pot. I personally use it for all my plants. It has polymer coating to allow slow release during 8-9 months evenly. You don't have to worry about repotting the plant for about 1 year or worry about burning plant with your regular over the counter fertilizer. You need about 3-4oz per 3 gal pot or 4-5oz per 5 gal pot.GUARANTEED ANALYSIS Total Nitrogen (N)**. . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . 15%8.0% Ammoniacal Nitrogen7.0% Nitrate NitrogenAvailable Phosphate (P2O5)**. . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . 9%Soluble Potash (K2O)**. . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . 12%Magnesium (Mg)**. . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . 1.3%0.8% Water Soluble Magnesium (Mg)Sulfur (S)**. . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . 5.9%5.93% Combined Sulfur (S)Boron (B). . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . 0.02%Copper (Cu). . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . 0.05%0.05% Water Soluble Copper (Cu)Iron (Fe)**. . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . 0.46%0.08% Water Soluble Iron (Fe)0.005% Chelated Iron (Fe)Manganese (Mn)**. . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . 0.06%0.05% Water Soluble Manganese (Mn)Molybdenum (Mo)**. . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . 0.02%Zinc (Zn). . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . 0.05%0.017% Water Soluble Zinc (Zn)Derived from: Polymer-Coated: Ammonium Nitrate,Ammonium Phosphate, Potassium Sulfate, MagnesiumSulfate, Sodium Borate, Iron Phosphate, Iron EDTA,Manganese Sulfate, Sodium Molybdate, Zinc Sulfate;Copper Sulfate, Zinc Oxide Pictures depict grown up plants and its possible applications.Height of the plants is measured from the base of the root ball.No refunds, returns or exchanges
