Cultivation Giant granadilla
The Giant granadilla Is medium in size; in summer it assumes a bluepurple colouring. These are evergreen plants, which means they keep their leaves year round. These plants are climbers, therefore they grow leaning against supports of all types. The Giant granadilla has a shrub- like development. Fertilize Giant granadilla
For climber plants to develop without problems, let’s act at the end of the winter, or in autumn, adding some manure, or a slow release fertilizer to the ground. In the spring, every 25-30 days, let’s add some specific fertilizer for green or flowering plants to the irrigating water. Light Giant granadillaSole pieno
We suggest growing the The Giant granadilla in the garden; these are very rustic plants. We suggest to position the The Giant granadilla in a sunny spot at least a few hours a day.These plants have a climber development; to let them grow at their best, let's place them near a grate or a wall. Water Giant granadillaTenere asciutto
Water sporadically, with 1-2 buckets 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 2-3 weeks . These plants have a vigorous development; when the stem is wider it might need abundant watering during the long summer months. Pests Giant granadilla
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. Mold Giant granadilla
We advise growing these plants in quite deep and soft soil with an elevated drainage.
