Care Glory-pea
This plant in the spring assumes a pink colouring; it is medium in size and can reach 4 m high. It keeps its leaves in the winter. 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 Glory-pea develops like a shrub. Feed Glory-pea
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. Temperatures Glory-peaSole pieno
The Glory-pea can't tolerate freezings, therefore it is best to grow it in a cold green house or in an apartment; during late Spring we can place them outside, when all risks of freezings are unprobable. For a balanced development of the the Glory-pea it is advisable to locate it in a place where it is exposed to at least a few hours of direct sunlight.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. Irrigation Glory-peaTenere Umido
These plants favour quite regular watering, usually 1-2 buckets of water ; we advise in any case to irrigate every 2-3 weeks , when the soil is dry. We should remember that the climber shrubs are very vigorous, and sometimes need very abundant watering. Adversity Glory-pea
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. Substrate Glory-pea
They love not too drained, slightly heavy soils which withhold dampness a bit.
