Water WattleTenere asciutto
We advise watering the young specimens, or the recently sheltered ones; the adult specimens usually are satisfied with rain water. 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 4-5 weeks .

Cultivation Wattle
These plants have an erect development; in the lower part they usually show a bare stem, while towards the top they widen to form the crown. The Wattle Is medium in size; in spring it assumes a white colouring. These are evergreen plants, which means they keep their leaves year round. The Wattle has a shrub- like development.

Light WattleSole pieno
We suggest to position the The Wattle in a sunny spot at least a few hours a day. With a particularly windy climate we suggest securing young trees to long solid stakes, to avoid that the wind could bare young and not very developed roots; specimens which are only a few years old might fear intense cold and wind.These plants don't like excessively harsh temperatures, with night-time minimum temperatures below 0°C. during the spring in general they are grown in a covered place, moving them outdoors, or uncovering them, when there isn't any danger of sudden temperature drops.

Pests Wattle
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 Wattle
Grow these plants in a dissolved and deep, but well drained soil.
