Editing Parinari capensis (section)

== Cultivation ==

=== Soil and water ===

Use a freely draining, moisture-retentive medium. The plant is associated with fairly sandy habitats, and cultivation guidance calls for well-drained soil that retains moisture rather than a waterlogged root zone. <sup>[[#cite_note-2|[2]]]</sup>

Water regularly while the plant is growing, and apply mulch during dry periods. The species is described as able to withstand dry conditions, but the available guidance does not establish a numeric irrigation schedule. <sup>[[#cite_note-2|[2]]]</sup>

=== Sun and humidity ===

Grow it in sun. Its recorded habitats include grassland, woodland, and savanna, while cultivation guidance specifically recommends a sunny position. Keep the medium moisture-retentive without allowing it to remain saturated. <sup>[[#cite_note-2|[2]]]</sup>

=== Seasonal changes ===

In the southern African seasonal pattern described for the plant, flowers appear in September and October. Fruit typically ripens on the ground from October to January and takes about a year to ripen completely. These dates are a regional phenology pattern, not a universal calendar for every climate. <sup>[[#cite_note-2|[2]]]</sup>

The plant has low frost tolerance and is described as able to withstand dry conditions. Protect it from frost, and use regular watering and mulch during dry periods. <sup>[[#cite_note-2|[2]]]</sup>
