Watering Erythrina coralloidesTenere Umido
We advise watering the young specimens, or the recently sheltered ones; the adult specimens usually are satisfied with rain water. During this period of the year the the Erythrina coralloides needs regular watering, which should be done letting the soil dry between one watering and the other; let’s irrigate every 2-3 weeks with about 2-3 buckets of water .

Generalities Erythrina coralloides
These plants have a sapling deportment, with a short stem with a small roundish crown. The Erythrina coralloides is medium in size and 4,5 m in height; in the spring it assumes a red colouring. These plants aren't evergreens, which means they lose their leaves some months during the year. The Erythrina coralloides has a shrub- like development.

Exposure Erythrina coralloidesPosizione mezza ombra
It is advisable to position this plant in a partially shady place, where it is exposed to direct sunlight only during the coolest hours of the 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.The Erythrina coralloides can't stand temperatures below zero; they should be grown in cold green houses or at least in a place where they are sheltered by the wind; when every risk of late freezings has gone by we can place them outside or remove the protections.

Treatments Erythrina coralloides
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.

Soil Erythrina coralloides
We suggest a pretty rich, quite soft, but not too drained, growing substratum.
