Senecio Spring glory

Senecio I like the article

Irrigation SenecioTenere asciutto
Let’s water these plants only when the substratum is clearly dry using 2-3 glasses of water ; during this period of the year we should intervene every 1-2 weeks , or even less if the weather is rainy. Generally during the period of vegetatational rest it isn't necessary to water our perennial plants, which in many cases lose their aerial part.

Temperatures SenecioSole pieno
For a balanced development of the The Senecio it is advisable to locate it in a place where it is exposed to at least a few hours of direct sunlight. The Senecio can't tolerate freezings, therefore it is best to grow it in a cold green house or in an apartment; during late Spring we can place them outside, when all risks of freezings are unprobable.Usually during the coldest periods of the year the aerial part of these plants dries; it will begin to develop again the spring after.

Care Senecio
The Senecio is a year or two year long plant. The development of the The Senecio is Senecio isn't an evergreen; during the spring, summer, autumn, winter it assumes a purple colouring; the adult species are medium in size and reach 20 cm in height.

Adversity Senecio
The spring weather, with a high temperature swing between the day and night hours, and pretty frequent rains, can favour the development of fungus diseases, which should be treated pre-emptively with a systemic fungicide, to use before the gems grow excessively; at the end of the winter we also suggest a wide range insecticide to prevent the attack of aphids and cochineals. We should always remember to do these treatments when there aren't flowerings in the garden.

Substrate Senecio
Grow these perennial plants in a very well drained substratum.

Seeing the quite contained development it’s possible to grow these plants in a container. The indications given in this article are related to a medium size plant.
