Feed Cistanthe tweedyi
In the spring let’s fertilize perennials periodically, using a specific fertilizer for flowering plants, to add to the irrigating water, every 20-25 days; or we can spread a slow release fertilizer near the plants every 3-4 months.

Care Cistanthe tweedyi
These plants are used in rock gardens. Cistanthe tweedyi Is an evergreen; during summer iIt assumes a pink colouring; the adult specimens are large in size and reach 15 cm high. The Cistanthe tweedyi has a panel-like development, therefore it tends to widen very much.

Irrigation Cistanthe tweedyiTenere asciutto
These plants display a pretty long period of vegetational rest. During this time it isn't necessary to water the plants. We suggest watering the The Cistanthe tweedyi every 1-2 weeks with 2-3 glasses of water , which means when the soil has been dry for days; if the season should be very hot and arid we can intensify the quantity of irrigations, although we must avoid leaving the substratum soaked with water.

Adversity Cistanthe tweedyi
As the day-time temperatures rise at the beginning of the spring, it is agreeable to practice a preventive treatment, with a wide-range insecticide, which should be applied when there aren’t flowerings in the garden. Before the buds become too large, it is advisable to also treat them with a wide-range fungicide, to prevent the development of fungal diseases which spread easily when there is an elevated environmental moisture.

Substrate Cistanthe tweedyi
These perennial plants favour specific soils for acidophilic plants, with a good drainage.
