How to grow
A low-maintenance shrub, while Midyim berry is tolerant of a range of soils, improve with compost prior to planting for optimal growth. Plant in a free-draining soil and water regularly during establishment. Prune after fruiting in autumn to maintain a compact habit. An annual application of compost will help improve the soil and keep plants healthy.
