I like the article Cheesewood Is an evergreen; during winter iIt assumes a green colouring; the adult specimens are small in size and reach 4 m high. The development is erect, they tend to grow both in height and in width, giving origin to a rounded shrub. As they grow, these plants become the size of a tree. Feed Cheesewood
To obtain a florid development it is important to remember to fertilize our shrubs periodically; in the spring let’s use a fertilizer rich in nitrogen and potassium, which will favour the development of new vegetation and of flowerings. We can intervene at the end of the winter, mixing a good dose of slow release organic fertilizer to the soil surrounding our plant. During the spring it is also possible to act periodically, with liquid or powder fertilizers, to add to the water when irrigating, every 20-25 days. Temperatures Cheesewood
These plants don't like the cold weather during this time of year. If the minimum night-time temperatures are very harsh it is best to cover the The Cheesewood with non-woven fabric. Let's grow the The Cheesewood in a luminous place, with direct sunlight.When the minimum temperatures are very low we can protec the more sensible brushes by covering their roots with dry leaves or straw. Irrigation Cheesewood
We suggest watering the The Cheesewood every 2-3 weeks with 1-2 buckets of water , which means when the soil has been dry for days; if the season should be very hot and arid we can intensify the quantity of irrigations, although we must avoid leaving the substratum soaked with water. If we decide to grow a specimen of the Cheesewood in a container, we should remember that it will have slightly different needs compared to a specimen grown in the ground: we should pay more attention to its water and nutritional needs and check more often for possible development of parassites. Adversity Cheesewood
As the day-time temperatures rise at the beginning of the spring, it is agreeable to practice a preventive treatment, with a wide-range insecticide, which should be applied when there aren’t flowerings in the garden. Before the buds become too large, it is advisable to also treat them with a wide-range fungicide, to prevent the development of fungal diseases which spread easily when there is an elevated environmental moisture. Substrate Cheesewood
Locate in a soft soil with an accentuated drainage.
