A LITTLE LOCAL GROWING KNOW-HOW

Help your Jatropha Tree feel at home.

Jatropha integerrima

01 · Sun requirements

Find its light

Full sun, at least 6 hours of direct light.

02 · Indoor / outdoor

Make room, indoors or out

An outdoor landscape specimen. Plan for mature root and canopy space; it will outgrow a small balcony pot.

03 · Soil & amendments

Start with good soil

Well-drained sandy or loamy soil. If organic matter is needed, mix mature compost through the whole bed, not just the planting hole. Use a draining potting mix in containers.

04 · Water requirements

Water with care

Water regularly while roots establish. Once established in the ground, water deeply during prolonged dry weather and allow the upper soil to dry between soakings. Container plants need more frequent checks.

05 · Growing habit

Give it room to grow

Multi-stemmed flowering shrub trained as a small tree; can reach roughly 15 ft tall and wide unpruned. Shape young branches and remove basal shoots.

06 · Zones & cold protection

Know your growing zone

Can be grown in zones 9b–11, but frost may burn foliage or cause dieback. Shelter containers and young plants during freezing weather.

Jatropha integerrima is poisonous if eaten; its milky sap can irritate skin during pruning.
