Desmodium tiliifolium

Watering Desmodium tiliifolium
If we want to grow these plants in a vase, we should water them a bit more often, compared to plants cultivated in the ground; Every 2-3 years we should renew the substratum in the vase, or enrich with organic amender. Water rarely, about once every 2-3 weeks with 1-2 buckets of water , keeping the soil dry for a few days before watering again; when wetting we suggest avoiding surpluses, however to wet the soil deep down.

Generalities Desmodium tiliifolium
These plants give origin to a brush with a rounded form. The Desmodium tiliifolium is small in size and 1,5 m in height; in the summer it assumes a purple colouring. These plants aren't evergreens, which means they lose their leaves some months during the year. The Desmodium tiliifolium has a shrub- like development.

Exposure Desmodium tiliifolium
The Desmodium tiliifolium should be grown in a bright place, with direct sunlight. To prevent damage caused by the cold temperatures, during the months with definately harsh minimum temperatures, we can protect the shrubs by covering the soil around the stem with straw or dry leaves.These plants don't agree with cold temperatures during this time of year. They can be grown outside.

Treatments Desmodium tiliifolium
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.

Soil Desmodium tiliifolium
For these shrubs it’s necessary to choose a rich and deep substratum , which presents an excellent drainage.
