Plectranthus coleoides I like the article

Light Plectranthus coleoidesSole pieno
We suggest to position the The Plectranthus coleoides in a sunny spot at least a few hours a day. These plants lose the aerial part during the coldest months of the year. As spring begins, stems and leaves quickly start to reproduce.We advise cultivating the The Plectranthus coleoides in a covered place, in an apartment or green house, as they don't like temperatures below 15°C: during late Spring they can be moved outdoors.

Cultivation Plectranthus coleoides
These plants grow covering the whole land at their disposal. The Plectranthus coleoides Is medium in size; in winter it assumes a greenwhite colouring. These are evergreen plants, which means they keep their leaves year round. The Plectranthus coleoides is a perennial herb plant.

Fertilize Plectranthus coleoides
We suggest adding to the irrigation water, in the spring, every 20-25 days, a specific fertilizer for flowering plants. We can also mix to the soil near the plants a granular slow release fertilizer, which has a 3-4 month action.

Water Plectranthus coleoidesTenere Umido
Let's wet abundantly with about 2-3 glasses of water , acting when the soil is pretty dry; during this period of the year we can water even every 1-2 weeks . Perennial plants are subject to some months of vegetational rest. During these months it isn't necessary to water them.

Pests Plectranthus coleoides
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.

Mold Plectranthus coleoides
These plants need a scarcely drained soil, which can remain slightly damp.
