Irrigation Siberian squillTenere 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. Watering takes place only when the soil has been dry for days, usually every 1-2 weeks can be enough; if the climate is particularly hot we can slightly intensify the irrigations, using 1-2 glasses of water .

Care Siberian squill
These plants grow covering the whole land at their disposal. The Siberian squill is small in size and 15 cm in height; in the spring it assumes a blue 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.

Temperatures Siberian squillSole pieno
Plant which needs at least a few hours a day of sunlight. 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 Siberian squill outdoors year round, as they don't fear cold weather.

Adversity Siberian squill
Generally during this time of year we suggest a pre-emptive treatment with wide range insecticide and with a systemic fungicide, to prevent the attack from part of the aphids and the development of fungus diseases, often favoured by a mild and damp climate.

Substrate Siberian squill
Locate in a deep and dissolved soil, with an accentuated drainage.
