Buckbean I like the article

Irrigation BuckbeanTenere bagnato
During this period of the year it is recommendable to keep the soil slightly moist, watering the The Buckbean regularly, every 0-1 weeks with 1-2 buckets of water . 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.

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

Care Buckbean
These plants are grown in water gardens. The Buckbean has a panel-like development, therefore it tends to widen very much. This plant in the spring, summer, autumn, winter assumes a white colouring; it is medium in size and can reach 25 cm high. It doesn't keep its leaves in the winter.

Adversity Buckbean
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.

Substrate Buckbean
Aquatic plants need a heavy, scarcely drained, constantly humid soil.
