Molucella laevis

Molucella laevis I like the article

Watering Molucella laevisTenere asciutto
Water rarely, about once every 1-2 weeks with 2-3 glasses of water , keeping the soil dry for a few days before watering again; when wetting we suggest avoiding surpluses, however to wet the soil deep down. As the cold weather arrives, in autumn, usually waterings is interrupted because these plants can't bear harsh temperatures.

Exposure Molucella laevisSole pieno
the Molucella laevis should be grown in a bright place, with direct sunlight. The Molucella laevis can't stand temperatures below zero; they should be grown in cold green houses or at least in a place where they are sheltered by the wind; when every risk of late freezings has gone by we can place them outside or remove the protections.These plants have an annual development, therefore when it becomes cold they deteriorate, and get completely eradicated.

Generalities Molucella laevis
The Molucella laevis have a one or two year development cycle. These plants give origin to a brush with a rounded form. The Molucella laevis is medium in size and 60 cm in height; in the spring, summer, autumn, winter it assumes a green colouring. These plants aren't evergreens, which means they lose their leaves some months during the year.

Treatments Molucella laevis
Generally during this time of year we suggest a pre-emptive treatment with wide range insecticide and with a systemic fungicide, to prevent the attack from part of the aphids and the development of fungus diseases, often favoured by a mild and damp climate.

Soil Molucella laevis
We advise locating these annual plants in a dissolved soil, with an elevated drainage.
