Generalities Dumbcane
These plants are perennial herbs. The development is erect, they tend to grow both in height and in width, giving origin to a rounded shrub. Dumbcane Is an evergreen; during winter iIt assumes a green colouring; the adult specimens are medium in size and reach 1 m high.

Exposure DumbcanePosizione mezza ombra
For a balanced development, it is best to position the The Dumbcane in a partially shady place, where it can enjoy direct sunlight only during the coolest hours of the day. We suggest growing the The Dumbcane In the house or in a warmed greenhouse; when the minimum temperatures go past 15°C it is possible to move them outside.We suggest locating the vases in a pretty bright place, although avoiding direct sunlight, which could damage the foliage.

Watering DumbcaneTenere asciutto
Let’s avoid watering the The Dumbcane excessively, always leaving the soil dry for a few days between one watering and the other, therefore let’s irrigate the substratum deeply every 1-2 weeks with 2-3 glasses of water . It is advisable to water the plants avoiding to leave water in the saucer, because stagnant water often develops fungal diseases.

Treatments Dumbcane
As the day-time temperatures rise at the beginning of the spring, it is agreeable to practice a preventive treatment, with a wide-range insecticide, which should be applied when there aren’t flowerings in the garden. Before the buds become too large, it is advisable to also treat them with a wide-range fungicide, to prevent the development of fungal diseases which spread easily when there is an elevated environmental moisture.

Soil Dumbcane
These plants favour soft and very well drained soils. We suggest, every 2-3 years to repot the plants, changing the soil.
