Dig a hole about the size of a bucket and add a bit of cow or chook poo or
whatever you like to help them grow. It does not really matter if you have
ok soil, but if it's just sand, then maybe a bit of something to eatwill
do them good. This gives the roots a bit of loose soil to grow through.
Fill the hole back up, and put the chokos on their side halfway into the
ground with half visible above the soil. Water well and give them
somewhere to climb. They often sprout before planting if you just leave
them sit in a basket.

Stand back about the same distance Jack did when he planted the funny
seeds his mother belted him over! They are great in Qld for covering up
sheds, broken fences, trees, houses, skyscrapers,......

In two years time you won't be able to give them all away!

About 20 years ago I planted one, thought it had died, then a few months
later ended up with hundreds of them!
