I like the article This plant in the summer assumes a white colouring; it is small in size and can reach 10 cm high. It doesn't keep its leaves in the winter. The development is erect, they tend to grow both in height and in width, giving origin to a rounded shrub. These plants are used in rock gardens. Fertilize Willowherb
During the spring months we can add a specific fertilizer for our plants, green or flowering ones, to the water of our water garden . On the market there are also specific fertilizer which come in bars or in granular form, to be planted near the plants to melt constantly in about 3-4 months. Light Willowherb
These plants aren't afraid of the cold weather and can be grwon in the garden throughout the whole year. The Willowherb should be preferably located in a place where it can have at least a few hours a day of direct solar light.Our water plants can't bear cold temperatures therefore we can move them inside the house, placing them in large containers. Water Willowherb
Let's water abundantly, moistening the soil deeply with 1-2 buckets of water , but let's act only when the substratum is dry, leaving it dry even for 10-11 days before watering it. These plants need a great quantity of dampness; they should be placed on shores, or sea beds, or small ponds. If grown in a large container, usually the water should be substituted every 15-20 days. Pests Willowherb
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.
