Planting & Care
1. Planting: This plant does best in full sun to partial shade and average to evenly moist conditions, but will not tolerate standing water.
Dwarf Cardamom can be planted in outdoor pots and containers in combination with other plants. Plant it near the center of the pot, surrounded by smaller plants and those that spill over the edges. It can also be grown alone.
2. Watering: Your Dwarf Cardamom may require more frequent watering in a container than it will in the yard or garden. Otherwise, regular rainfall should be sufficient.
3. Pruning: No pruning is necessary unless desired for shaping the plant.
