Care Creeping charlie
The Creeping charlie is a perennial herb plant. These plants grow covering the whole land at their disposal. The Creeping charlie Is small in size; in winter it assumes a green colouring. These are evergreen plants, which means they keep their leaves year round.

Temperatures Creeping charliePosizione mezza ombra
We suggest locating this plant in a partially shady place, where it is exposed to direct sunlight during the coolest hours of the day. These plants don't like cold temperatures, therefore in the spring it is best to place them outside only when temperatures are above 15°C.These plants lose the aerial part during the coldest months of the year. As spring begins, stems and leaves quickly start to reproduce.

Irrigation Creeping charlieTenere asciutto
Watering takes place only when the soil has been dry for days, usually every 1-2 weeks can be enough; if the climate is particularly hot we can slightly intensify the irrigations, using 2-3 glasses of water . Perennial plants are subject to some months of vegetational rest. During these months it isn't necessary to water them.

Adversity Creeping charlie
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 Creeping charlie
We suggest a substratum characterized by an excellent drainage.
