Fertilize 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.

Cultivation 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.

Water Cistanthe tweedyiTenere asciutto
These plants display a pretty long period of vegetational rest. During this time it isn't necessary to water the plants. Let's water abundantly, moistening the soil deeply with 2-3 glasses of water , but let's act only when the substratum is dry, leaving it dry even for 1-2 weeks before watering it.

Pests 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.
