Planting Season:
Best planted during spring or early summer to ensure the plant establishes itself before colder months.
Sunlight Requirements:
Prefers bright, indirect sunlight. Too much direct sunlight can scorch the leaves, while too little light may reduce blooming.
Temperature Tolerance:
Ideal growing temperature ranges from 15-30°C. This plant is sensitive to frost, so ensure protection from cold temperatures.
Soil Type:
Thrives in well-draining, slightly acidic soil. A mix of garden soil, sand, and organic compost works well for this plant’s root system.
Watering Needs:
Water moderately, ensuring the soil remains slightly moist but not waterlogged. Reduce watering during winter when the plant enters dormancy.
Fertilization:
Feed the plant with a balanced liquid fertilizer every 2-3 weeks during the growing season (spring to early autumn). Avoid over-fertilizing to prevent root burn.
Pruning & Maintenance:
Prune after flowering to remove dead or weak stems, encouraging new growth and better flowering in the next season.
Propagation:
Easily propagated through stem cuttings. Cut a healthy segment, let it dry for a few days, and plant it in well-draining soil.
Pests and Problems:
The most common problems include aphids, slugs, and fungal issues due to overwatering. Treat fungal issues with a fungicide, and use slug pellets or natural remedies like crushed eggshells to deter slugs. Aphids can be treated with insecticidal soap or a mild pesticide spray.
To encourage blooming, place the plant in a location where it receives plenty of indirect sunlight, and avoid overwatering. Adding a layer of gravel or pebbles to the top of the soil can help with water retention while preventing root rot.
