Water Scilla scilloidesTenere asciutto
These plants don't need too much water; staying in a soil which is too damp, can easily cause the development of rotten in the bulbs. Water sporadically, with 1-2 glasses of water , leaving the soil dry for a few days before watering again; when watering we suggest avoiding excesses, but to wet the substratum well. Let's act every 1-2 weeks .

Cultivation Scilla scilloides
These plants grow covering the whole land at their disposal. The Scilla scilloides is medium in size and 30 cm in height; in the autumn it assumes a pink colouring. These plants aren't evergreens, which means they lose their leaves some months during the year. These plants have trunks or roots which store nourishment, originating bulbs or tubers.

Locate this plant in a partially shady place, where it can take in the solar rays during the coolest hours of the day. If necessary we can extract the bulbs from the ground, during the vegetative rest; after letting them dry we should place them in a cool, dry and dark place. During the most indicated season we can plant them again.We suggest growing the the Scilla scilloides in the garden; these are very rustic plants.
