I like the article Leather flower isn't an evergreen; during the summer it assumes a blue colouring; the adult species are medium in size and reach 3,5 m in height. It has a climber development, for a correct development it is best to place these plants near a support on which they can develop themselves. The Leather flower develops like a shrub. Fertilize Leather flower
For a balanced growth let’s remember to mix some organic fertilizer to the soil around the plant, in the spring or in autumn; it’s also possible to use a, slow release granular fertilizer, to be added every 3-4 months. Light Leather flower
The Leather flower bears even very harsh temperatures, therefore it can be grown outdoors without feeling endangered by low temperatures. Plant which need at least a few hours a day of solar light.To allow these plants to develop as well as possible, it is best to locate them near a wall, a gate or an appropriate grate. Water Leather flower
We suggest watering these plants with 1-2 buckets of water only when the soil is perfectly dry, generally it needs to be watered about every 2-3 weeks . Let's avoid to exceed. We should remember that the climber shrubs are very vigorous, and sometimes need very abundant watering. Pests Leather flower
The spring weather, with a high temperature swing between the day and night hours, and pretty frequent rains, can favour the development of fungus diseases, which should be treated pre-emptively with a systemic fungicide, to use before the gems grow excessively; at the end of the winter we also suggest a wide range insecticide to prevent the attack of aphids and cochineals. We should always remember to do these treatments when there aren't flowerings in the garden. Mold Leather flower
Cultivate these climbers in a soft and deep soil with an elevated drainage.
