Water regularly, allowing the soil to dry out slightly between waterings. Spondias mombin prefers consistently moist soil but can tolerate short periods of drought once established.

Reduce watering during cooler, dormant periods to prevent root rot. Ensure good drainage to avoid waterlogged conditions.

Prune to shape the tree, remove dead or damaged branches, and improve air circulation. Light pruning can be done anytime, but heavier pruning is best done in the late dry season or early rainy season.

Pinching young shoots can encourage a bushier form if desired.

Spondias mombin can be propagated by seeds, which require stratification or soaking before sowing. Cuttings are also a viable method, typically taken from semi-hardwood during the growing season.

Rooting hormone may enhance success rates for cuttings.

Young trees benefit from repotting every 1-2 years into a slightly larger container to accommodate root growth. As the tree matures, repotting becomes less frequent, perhaps every 3-5 years.

Ensure the new pot has adequate drainage holes to prevent waterlogging.
