Prunus serotina

Prunus serotina I like the article

Light Prunus serotinaSole pieno
The Prunus serotina bears even very harsh temperatures, therefore it can be grown outdoors without feeling endangered by low temperatures. During the winter young plants could need a light protection from the wind or cold; when putting the very young specimens, with a thin stem, in shelter, we should provide them with a high stake to keep them erect.Plant which need at least a few hours a day of solar light.

Cultivation Prunus serotina
The Prunus serotina develops like a tree. Prunus serotina isn't an evergreen; during the summer it assumes a purplepink colouring; the adult species are large in size and reach 16 m in height. Growing they develop a round-shape shrub.

Fertilize Prunus serotina
Trees tend to find a great part of nutrients in the soil, because their roots spread more than ten metres; in any case it is advisable to feed the soil with amendants, to guarantee a good quantity of mineral salts; every 2-3 years, in the spring or autumn, we suggest adding to the soil at the feet of the trunk, about a bucket of mature organic fertilizer.

Water Prunus serotinaTenere asciutto
We suggest watering these plants with 1-2 buckets of water only when the soil is perfectly dry, generally it needs to be watered about every 4-5 weeks . Let's avoid to exceed. The young specimens, recently sheltered, need more cures compared to the adult specimens: as the years go by the development of a good radical apparatus allows the plant to be satisfied with the rain, without needing other waterings.
