Idesia polycarpa Cultivation | Propagation | General Uses Cultivation Notes: Prefers a neutral to slightly acid loamy soil, but tolerates a chalky sub-soil if the top soil is deep[200]. Succeeds in full sun or semi-shade[188]. The dormant plant is hardy to about -15°c, though the tree is somewhat hardier if the wood is thoroughly ripened by a long hot summer[200]. The young shoots in spring can be damaged by late frosts. A very ornamental plant[1]. The flowers have a most delicious perfume, which can be wafted far and wide by warm breezes[245]. Trees produce fruit regularly at Kew[11]. Dioecious. Male and female plants must be grown if fruit and seed is required. Female plants can produce some fruit in the absence of a male plant[11].
