Very light balanced organic fertilizer once a month during the spring and summer. Select a well drained spot (cashew trees don't like wet feet or heavy clay soils), preferably a place that has some protection from strong winds. Step your plant up to larger pots gradually as you acclimate it to the sun. Consider ordering two trees for cross pollination and get a larger harvest. Your tree should begin fruiting at around three years of age. Keep the trees compact so you can cover them with a blanket, if you are in other zones you need a greenhouse.Ĭashew is self fertile and is pollinated by insects. I have many friends that grow them here in South Florida and they do protect them in winter. Best chance of success without a greenhouse would be zones 11a then 10b and more difficult in 10a. At temperatures below 40 degrees they are in big trouble and can die.
They do not like temperatures below 50 degrees Fahrenheit. They like tropical weather but you can grow them in the sub tropics too.
