The Chitalpa develops like a tree. They tend to develop like erect small trees. Chitalpa isn't an evergreen; during the summer it assumes a pink colouring; the adult species are small in size and reach 5 m in height.
Temperatures Chitalpa
For a balanced development of the the Chitalpa it is advisable to locate it in a place where it is exposed to at least a few hours of direct sunlight. The Chitalpa is a plant which can be grown in the garden year round.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.
Irrigation Chitalpa
Let’s water these plants only when the substratum is clearly dry using 1-2 buckets of water ; during this period of the year we should intervene every 2-3 weeks , or even less if the weather is rainy. 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.
Adversity Chitalpa
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 Chitalpa
These shrubs favour a soft and deep, but well drained soil.
