Athyrium nipponicum

Athyrium nipponicum I like the article

Watering Athyrium nipponicumTenere Umido
We suggest watering pretty often and regularly, with 1-2 buckets of water ; we should always wait for the soil to be clearly dry between one watering and the other. During this time of year usually it is necessary to irrigate every 2-3 weeks . Concerning those specimens grown in vases, let's remember that usually they need more watering, compared to the same shrubs placed in the ground. Moreover, they are often more sensible to temperatures, either very high or very low, and to radical apparatus diseases.

Exposure Athyrium nipponicumPosizione ombreggiata
These plants don't like direct solar rays which could ruin their foliage; we therefore suggest to locate them in shady places. The Athyrium nipponicum usually doesn't have temperature problems during this time of year, because it can bear freezings although not too intense ones.During the winter months we can cover a portion of the soil near the roots with dry leaves or other mulch tissue; in this manner we will protect the plant from the harsh climate.

Generalities Athyrium nipponicum
The Athyrium nipponicum develops into a fern. Growing they develop a round-shape shrub. This plant in the spring, summer, autumn, winter assumes a green colouring; it is medium in size and can reach 30 cm high. It keeps its leaves in the winter.

Treatments Athyrium nipponicum
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.

Soil Athyrium nipponicum
Let’s favour an averagely drained, soft and rich growing substratum.
