Sunlight: Needs full sun to grow and fruit well. Make sure it gets at least 6–8 hours of light daily.

Temperature: Grows best in warm tropical conditions. It can tolerate heat but is sensitive to frost.
Fertilizing: Feed every 30–45 days during the growing season with organic compost or a mild balanced fertilizer.

reminds me of my childhood summers in sri lanka! i used to eat these right off the tree, and now i’m growing one on my terrace, pure nostalgia

the plant came in perfect shape, lush and green. roots were strong and within 10 days, new leaves started sprouting. super happy with the quality

i never thought i’d find veralu plants online. the delivery was fast and plant was packed so well. 10/10 service and quality

it’s been just over a month and my tree is already settling in beautifully. i water it every 3 days and it loves the full sun.

this is a super rare find. i ordered one for my mom and she was overjoyed. she’s been making pickles already in her head

Plant arrived in great condition, no damage at all. It’s adjusting well to the Bangalore climate. Can’t wait to see the first fruits.

veralu is one of those traditional fruits that bring back memories. growing my own feels so satisfying. thank you for offering this gem!

was a bit skeptical but wow... plant looks exactly like the one we had back home. rooted well, no pests, and really healthy. worth every rupee.
