Prune lightly after fruiting to shape the shrub and remove old canes every 2–3 years. Feed with an ericaceous fertilizer in spring and after harvest as needed.

Choose a sunny to light-shady site sheltered from strong winds. Aim for soil pH 4.5–5.5 and consider planting in groups to improve yields and resilience.
