Sunlight. Spontaneous in Mediterranean climates, Pistachio is a semi-rustic species and needs protection from low temperatures and from the frost.

Water it every day during the vegetative season and copiously after the flowering to help fruit ripeness. In winter keep the soil wet.

Every two weeks, from the beginning of vegetative season until the beginning of the flowering.

At the beginning of spring in alternate years. For trees, more than 10 years old, repotting operations can be rare, according to the development of the roots. Use base mould.

When the new growth presents 3-4 leave couples, pinch it to two couples; do not pinch the shortest buds with round apex: they will bring flowers. Thin out the unwelcome bushed growth during the vegetative season.
