Ardisia Mamillata

Once established, Ardisia mamillata can tolerate short droughts, but it grows best in moist soil. During the first year and in dry periods, water it weekly. If grown indoors, keep the soil evenly moist to prevent root rot, making sure it is never soggy.

Prune your Ardisia mamillata in late winter or early spring to shape the plant. To prevent it from spreading seeds, remove the spent blooms to stop berry production.
