Feed Brachychiton platanifolia
Tree fertilization should be done at the beginning of the spring or of autumn, using humus or mature manure; this should be done by mixing a few buckets of fertilizer to the ground, around the trunk of the tree, every 2-3 years or when the tree implanted.

Care Brachychiton platanifolia
The Brachychiton platanifolia develops in an erect manner and, as the years go by, becomes a tree. The Brachychiton platanifolia is medium in size and 17 m in height; in the spring it assumes a pink colouring. These plants aren't evergreens, which means they lose their leaves some months during the year. 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.

Irrigation Brachychiton platanifoliaTenere Umido
We advise watering the young specimens, or the recently sheltered ones; the adult specimens usually are satisfied with rain water. The Brachychiton platanifolia needs to be watered quite frequently, every 2-3 weeks ; if there are abundant rains we can diminish watering, which should be done only when the soil is dry. The suggested quantity is 2-3 buckets of water .

Adversity Brachychiton platanifolia
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 Brachychiton platanifolia
We suggest a pretty rich, quite soft, but not too drained, growing substratum.
