Default growing an avacardo plant

g'day semajjames,

i've currently got one in a 2 gallon pot it has lots of side shoots a
nice shaped little tree so far less than 12 months old and about 1
meter high, so yours should do the same without pinching out the top,
but if you feel that will work better i can't see any harm.

the only thing if it ever mature, which is why i'm giving it a try so
i ahve better knowledge, it may never bear fruit or it may be very
poor quality fruit the results are highly variable apparently.

if you want a fruiting plant then source one ot the newer dwarf
hybrids especially for pot growing.
