Let's grow the the Glyceria maxima in a luminous place, with direct sunlight. Our water plants can't bear cold temperatures therefore we can move them inside the house, placing them in large containers.Let's grow the the Glyceria maxima outdoors; they can bear very harsh minimum temperatures, even when many degrees below zero.

Care Glyceria maxima
When growing these plants tend to go up, developing very little in width, and they tend to have a columnar development. This plant in the spring, summer, autumn, winter assumes a greenwhite colouring; it is medium in size and can reach 80 cm high. It doesn't keep its leaves in the winter. These plants are grown in water gardens.

Feed Glyceria maxima
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.

Irrigation Glyceria maximaTenere Umido
Water when the ground is dry; in case of prolonged droughts water very often, otherwise every 1-2 weeks can be enough using 1-2 buckets of water ; avoid water stagnations and excessive watering. 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.

Adversity Glyceria maxima
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.
